My 2001 9-5 makes at 2000rpm. It's a low-freq humm-sound, typically lasting 1/2 to 1 second. If I keep the rpm's at 2000, I can hear the sound continuously. It's been there since day one. Dealer says it may be the transmission. The sound doesn't occur at shift-points. Happens going up, or down, in speed. Have noticed that in the sport-mode, it occurs at 2200 rpm. It's not that loud, but is annoying. Dealer says with the radio on, you'd hardly notice it!!!! Anyone else have a similar problem? Any cures? tks Brian
