2003 Dodge Durango Whistling noise when at idle or when dri

Hi
How about opening the hood and try and ID a place where noise comes from? does it change pitch as engine speed increases?
Let me know

The whistling did change a little when driving, but not much.

I took it to the shop and they replaced the IAC motor, however it still whistles. I was told to give it a week or two to see if whistling stops. They are saying it should stop by then and if not I will need a throttle body replacement.

Let me know what you think? Thanks

Has air intake snorkle and filter box been checked? also PCV maybe at fault

I am not certain if they checked the those parts, the shop did not mention this. I will look into that. The noise does seem to be coming from the location of the throttle body. After paying alot of money for the iac motor replacement, and it is still whistling are they right that the throttle body could be at fault or does the iac motor need to be worked in as they have stated?

The whistling noise is coming from the vicinity of the throttle body as far as I can tell.

No IAC does not need to be"worked in"pull off air snorkle and clean throttle body. Also cleanout all ports on body.

I have noticed since yesterday evening that the noise had stopped for a while, however it came back today and has since stopped again. It is quite confusing when you think about it.

I don't know what to think maybe IAC needs time to relearn never seen that before. Let me know what happens

The whistle went away briefly, now it is back with a vengeance. Could this be the throttle body as I was told? I am frustrated and do not want to shell out a lot of money again for non fixes.

4.7L or 5.9L? try this remove air snorkle fron throttle body engine running can you hear noise?

It is a 5.9l.
I removed the snorkle and the whistle was still there.

Get a couple feet of small dia. tubing. Place one end to ear the other at throttle body is whistle comming from plate area or in IAC opening? see diagram

The sound seems more like it is coming from the outside around the throttle body not from the iac. I took the car to the shop they stated they will have to change the throttle body. I am a little weary of spending any extra money even if it is just for the part.

Where could a used throttle body be purchased? Any idea of what it would cost.

See the four bolts remove pull up throttle and see if gasket is broken

Could not remove the throttle body, it seems like it has been glued down with some black rubber like substance. Is this normal? I believe the shop may have done this.

No not normal is it like RTV? can you get a putty blade into it?

I did manage to lift it, and the gasket is not broken.

Clean surfaces install new gasket torque to 17 ft. lbs. in an X pattern
