I could hear mine too while driving also. The sound never goes away, just drowned out by road noise.

Just an update. Honda still has my car! After sending it to a transmission shop, the transmission shop is still unsuccessful in the repair. My Honda rep said that his manager is trying to request a new transmission from Honda America, instead of the rebuilding.

In the meantime I am in their loaner car.

What came about your noise? Were you able to fix it?

They ended up replacing the transmission under warranty.

The noise is consisted even in while driving and in eventually drowned out by road noise. This buzzing/humming noise is not present when the car is in R, while backing up the car. I would say it sounds like a low growling.

Here is a video of it taken with my phone.

Does this sounds normal? Notice the sound when I shift into D, N and R the sound is not present.
My cars having the same problem any one know what it is?
