Acceleration Whine

Poutine

New member
Alright, so the past few days I've noticed a new whine noise upon acceleration. I've tried to take a video, but the noise wasn't captured so I spent the last 10 hours of my life searching for a video with the same whine. Finally find one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGfPmStl7cE

Recently got an oil change, and I've changed both intake and cabin filters. No CEL.

The whine gets louder as I accelerate due to higher RPMs, but is less noticeable at higher speeds.

Not sure if it's a leak of some sort or something with the turbo... Or I'm just being paranoid, but none the less, I wan't some closure as to what this may be, whether I need to get something fixed or not.

It's a 2013, with nearly 91k kms. I'm the second owner, and from what I was told, it's fully stock.

All help/tips is appreciated! Thanks!
