Front End Humming/Whining Noise
I have a 2014 Equinox AWD with about 40k miles on it. There is a loud humming/whining noise coming from the front end closer to the passenger side. The noise doesn't happen when it's first started in the morning, only after it's warmed up. But then it happens pretty immediately any other time I start the car throughout the day. Doesn't seem to get louder the faster I go, but it's most noticeable at idle/coast since there's no other engine noise. It happens in park and in drive, accelerating and coasting, regardless of whether the AC is on or not. Any ideas what it could be?
