My car had the same symptoms, got loud at 40, quieted at faster speeds, then got loud again at 60. It turned out to be a problem with the wheel bearings. They replaced the assembly in one of the wheels, $220, and the car sounds normal again.

What could be the problem if a 2001 Saturn SL2 that makes a humming noise when driving over 50 mph?

A humming noise in a 2001 Saturn SL2 when driving over 50 mph could indicate several potential issues. It might be related to worn wheel bearings, which can produce a humming sound as they fail. Another possibility is tire problems, such as uneven wear or unbalanced tires, which can create noise at higher speeds. Lastly, the noise could also stem from issues with the drivetrain or transmission components.


When to engage overdrive?

Overdrive should be engaged when driving at higher speeds, typically above 50 mph, to improve fuel efficiency and reduce engine wear. It allows the engine to operate at a lower RPM, which decreases fuel consumption and engine noise. Additionally, overdrive is useful for highway driving and cruising, where maintaining a steady speed is essential. However, it should be disengaged in situations requiring more power, like climbing hills or during heavy acceleration.
