May be a serpentine / V-belt. Have someone press the gas while you have the hood raised.

Might be a bearing in one of the accessories, such as the alternator or power steering pump. Try to isolate to a specific location, especially as it gets worse.

SOURCE: Rear acceleration noise

Try rear wheel bearings. The cause a roaring noise that increases with acceleration. Sounds very similar to loud road noise.

SOURCE: 1999 Nissan Altima - Whining Sounds When Accelerating

Well, not sure if the temps have a direct cause for your problem, but you may want to check the CV joints on your axles. If you have ripped a boot, and lost the grease, that could cause a whinning. There are also a few other things it could be as well............any more info?

SOURCE: My hyundai is making a rattling noise

that sounds like what we call "spark knock" that occurs when u accellerate quickly, but yes it will go away in a few seconds when the computer detects this condition. with the economy the way it is it will be more expensive, but try running higher octane gasoline in it, should cure this condition. hope that helped you!!

1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse whining noise from the rear when accelerating

A whining noise during acceleration usually, is from the gear set, indicating the pinion is too close to the ring gear.
I believe the eclipse is a FWD car though. Could it be the transmission you are hearing?

I have a whinning noise from under my truck when i accelerate

It sounds to me, like the pinion bearings are going out, in the rear differential. It makes a whine when accelerate and quits when let up. That a common problem with those trucks.

Whining noise while accelerating in 1st gear

Check the idler and tensioner pullys for your serpentine belt. I suspect the whining noise heard earlier was due to the fact one was getting a bit stiff or rough turning. When you gave it that extra fuel, the sudden load may have finished it off. Sometimes they lock up, and sometimes they fall apart. Check those items first.
