Does the sound appear to be louder when you are steering? Also, does it seem to happen more often if you are running the heat or air conditioning? If so, there's a good possibility it's the Power Steering pump. I had this on my 2005 Odyssey, and it's a known issue on 2005-2006 models. I was lucky enough to get this replaced under warranty. It made the whole drive SO much quieter and nice.
You will have to determine the source of the noise before you can fix it.
You are hearing a whirring when accelerating first to fourth because you are accelerating too fast and the whirring noise results. If you accelerate normally then you won't hear the whirring sound.
If the hum is more like a whirring or spinning noise, the starter drive, also known as bendix, needs to be replaced.

I am hearig a similar whirring noise in my 04 Maxima that increases in pitch as the car accelerates. I suspect it is the idler puley. I'm planning to replace it in a couple of weeks and will report ba.
I think a typing noise. Usually the sound of the cooling fans. (whirring)
I have a 1998 dodge dakota. I had a whirring noise that i thought was the transmission. Was real loud when i accellerated and shifted. it turned out to be the clutch on the fan that draws air thru the radiator was locked up and would make a real loud whirring noise because the clutch wasn't slipping as well as affected performance and shifting. Might check that out....... Good Luck Steve K
