I have recently purchased a 2004 Grand Prix GTP Comp G with 46k on it. While slowly accelerating the I can hear the supercharger whine. Is this normal since the engine is not under heavy load? It only whines while accelerating (not while turning or at idle). I just wanted to make sure there is nothing wrong with it. Thanks
 


It's a beautiful sound! Get use to it. =) Wow a 2004 with only 46k! Thats really low miles for the year. Good Deal.
 
alot of times its power steering or the torque converter you are hearing, i doubt with a stock air box and stock pulley you will hear the charger whine much. i got a few of these grand prixs, gts and gtps that i nick name crybaby for this whine they make(stronger than most) they all run fine with no issues. i do not think you have anything wrong..btw use only premium gas in your gtp! =)

I like that, that would be a cool window banner "CRY BABY" will get questions so you can show why LOL
 
30 percent throttle isnt exactly heavy throttle. OP Id verify your BBV valve is openiong and closing when you snap the throttle in neutral or park
 


Oh I am not complaining I like the whine very much! I was just making sure there was nothing wrong with it as it is a new car to me. I just making sure it is normal. Thanks for the input!
