Intermittent "vacuum cleaner" sound from engine V6

This came back today but it usually shows up during summer temps, I'll be stopped and hit the gas and a low pitched whir sound that is rpm sensative follows the rpm of the engine? Almostsound like a vacuum cleaner on low that increases with the rpm, it only makes the sound at low rpm and starts from rest as at a light or stop sign, the sound goes away on the highway or high rpms?

Was your A/C on? If it was and you got that sound its most likely normal since the fan stops and goes.

if it's a higher pitched whine, check your belts for cracks
