Buzzing noise increases with speed
I currently have a 2009 chevy malibu hybrid. Just recently I noticed when I hit speeds of about 30mph there is a buzzing noise coming from somewhere around the engine. As I increase in speed the noise gets faster and louder. There is no change in the noise when I turn the car left and right so I don't think it is a wheel bearing. I need knew tires but I don't believe it is the tires humming. Anyone else have this problem

Welcome to the the forum
Could be an exhaust leak
Maybe a loose heat shield
possible wind noise from the strips around the windshield
Might check the air cleaner and make sure its secure
Do you have a bug deflector installed?
Just some ideas

When the car is in park and the engine is revved it is normal and I can't see any holes in the exHaust. The noise gets faster and louder as you speed up and will slow when you slow down. Possibly a bearing in the transmission? I have no idea.
