I bought a new 2017 Civic Ex about a week ago. I can hear a humming sound between 1500 and 2000 rpm. I don't think its from the engine because the sound does not occur at idling (Maybe its the transmission?)

Not sure if this is normal. Has anyone had the same issue?

Hard to hear anything unusual to be honest. I hear a little bit of the engine growl in the video. :dunno:

Its kinda obscured by the wind noise, but that growl is basically what I am talking about. The sound is similar to an aircraft and it does not occur when I rev the engine at idling. Is it normal?

Well I have had my ext- manual and so far for only a few days, and I have noticed the engine growl a bit , for lack of a better term when accelerating. I do believe this is a perfectly normal characteristic of this engine.

IMO, it is normal and the dealer will most likely concur. Can you get any better audio clips?
