Icon5 hmmmmmm

Thats what i hear often...
Its a loudish hmmm nosie coming from the pass side.
I opened the hood and listed sounded like it was coming from the air box, maybe could be the alternator???

Driving i dont hear it, just idling i hear it...Sometimes it goes away too, like itll do it for a little while, then not??

Any diagnoses??

The noise is coming from your IAC (Idle Air Control) valve. You can try cleaning it, but more than likely, you will have to replace it.
