Default Vacuum noise while starting to gain speed

So the noise is almost like air leak in a vacuum chamber. It sounds like it’s coming from the top dash by the window. Anyone experience this and know if its something that needs to be fixed. It starts when I get to about 30 mph

top dish by the window?
air leak in a vacuum chamber? Who the heck has heard an air leak in a vacuum chamber!

Sorry man, no Idea what you are asking about. What part of the dish? L,R or center?

I fat fingered and spell check screwed me. Vaccines is vacuum and dish is dash. I tried to edit it but for some reason it won’t take the edit. It’s some weird noise coming from the center dash by the window.

Year and miles is always good info.

Open your hood and make sure the intake is all in proper position and then check that the air filter is clean and in proper position. Easy stuff first.

Good possibility. The 06/07 can have the canister Air Filter fall out of position if not popped into place when swapped. Seen that several times.

so I checked the filter and I believe it wasn’t seated properly. So I made sure to do that and I believe the noise is fixed. I will make sure today when i don’t have the heat cranking because of the cold.

Excellent! Also check to see if the plastic portions of the intake from the filter to the TB have a good seals too.
They will eventually throw codes if not.
