Hello , welcome and thank you for using Justanswer. My name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I will be helping you today on your car problem , I can not see , touch or hear your vehicle so please allow me to ask you questions if needed ,to get more familiar with your vehicle problem , this way I can offer a better answer. The site ,through out our chat may offer a phone call that I do not control . Usually I don’t make phone calls because most of the time I am working on customers cars and can not take time off I apologize, sometimes my posts take a little longer , once again this happens because I am busy working but I will get back to you as soon as possible. Before I start on the vehicle problem can I have your first name ? Thank you. About your car problem , the whooping sound is it from the front or rear ? Usually that sound is from a bad wheel bearing but I would lie the front of the vehicle and spin the wheels by hand to see if the tires are perfect round ,do the front and rear. The transmission ,if you step on the gas and the vehicle does not pick up speed ,I would make sure the transmission fluid level is full as the first step and then would have it scanned for trouble codes to see what pops up , and then go from there. Good luck. Thank you.

My name is RozitaThe sound is coming from the front passengerIt accelerates when I give it gas. However, as I'm driving the rpm goes up and car accelerates on its own
Automotive Expert
if it accelerates on its own , you need to have it scanned for trouble codes to see any throttle body code comes up , it sounds like you may have to replace the throttle body. The sound ,you need to check the wheel bearing on that side ,wheel bearings are common to go bad on this vehicle. Good luck. Please rate my answer if have helped, ask for additional info if needed . Thank you.

Okay, one last question. If I do need a new transmission, can it be rebuilt?
Automotive Expert
Yes , you can have yours rebuilt or you can get a rebuilt one from manufacturer ,which is double the cost.
