For about 2 weeks now I notice a hissing sound near the power steering/engine area. It happens when I get between 2-3 rpms. Looking under the hood I can tell the general area but can't pin point where it would be coming from. Any idea what this could be?
The black cylindrical thing he's talking about is your brake booster. It's possible you have a vacuum leak.
Is a brake booster hard to change out? What can happen if it isn't changed out right away?
You can have dust and impurities and crap make its way into your engine.

We all drive in a yellow Cavalier...
i think i got the same thing.
i can tell what it is, it 's around the right side of the motor and sounds like a supercharger but quiet and it gets higher pitched with the rpm's.
lol yeah some similar, but I don't really hear it once it passes 3 rmp's. What is it?
