The other day I was driving home with the radio going, heater blasting, and slush on the road, so I couldn't hear much of anything from the car as I drove. But when I turned into my parking lot and started shutting down the radio and heater, I was surprised to hear a pretty loud hum coming from the front of the car. It wasn't related to the car speed at all; when I came to a complete stop in my parking space, it was still going, sounding just like it had as I was moving.
Unfortunately I didn't have the presence of mind to try just putting the car in neutral or park, but instead simply shut it off. The humming stopped instantly. I turned the car back on, but didn't get any humming.
It seemed to me to be a bit higher pitch than a 60-hz hum.
That was a couple of days ago, and it hasn't happened again.
Has anyone else had anything like this happen?
