My vehicle turns on and drives great but sometimes when I turn it on I hear a humming noise that shouldn't be there. Also, when I get on the highway and get on the gas I notice the humming noise again. It almost sounds like a computer humming if that makes sense. When I let go of the gas, it doesnt do it. Only when I accelerate. Any ideas?
 
I always start with the easy/free methods. My optimistic approach would be to pull the air filter and inspect. These are big engines and need a lot of air. if you have an old filter or one with a ton of debris in there it'll create some wacky intake notes.
 
Secondary air injection pump
