Default -Help- Buzzing Noise

When I accelerate from a stop, I hear this buzzing noise that sounds like a fly or a gnat. It's pretty quiet and I can only hear it when the radio is off. I sounds like something is vibrating. I doubt that it is a serious problem and there is no change in engine performance when I hear the sound.

Please advise.

You fial at recognizing humor!

Seriously though if it is only heard when the radio is off then don't worry about it, its called a car and they make noise.

Where's the noise coming from? Engine, exhaust, under the car, inside the car, behind the dash, inside the door, rear compartment?

i had the same problem.after a while i pinpointed to the passenger side lower dash panel.its where the passengers knees would be,dont know the actual name of the part.theres a metal brace or bracket type thing behind it and the plastic is vibrating when you take off,stuck a piece of sound deadner stuff and it stoped that buzzing noise.someone on here actualy suggested i look in that area.
