Yes, there are two different high pitched noises. The engine compartment one can generally only be heard when you shut the engine off, and it continues to "whine" for about 2 seconds, then stops. This seems to exist on all 370s. The issue Roo has is totally different. This is an ECM issue and is sporadic as to the number of cars affected. My hearing is still good for my age, and I can tell you a continuous high pitched whine is obnoxious. Let's hope they fix it. If not, I would demand a replacement.
