My toyota corolla altis 1.8E VVTI yr 2011 got this humming sound when reserve. The SA told me it is normal. Anybody having the same model facing the same problem?? I worry is the gearbox problem. Any expert can give me some advise??

Humming sound as like its winding?

Yes its normal. You'll here it more in the M/T... never really paid attention if you can hear it in A/T.

Go test drive another one from your dealer to see if there's a difference.
Your Altis are quite different from ours here. Yours must've been from UMW.

every car ive ever driven has made a kind of winding noise when driving in reverse for more than a few feet.

ive noticed to be louder on Civics and Corollas when compared to most other cars.

ya, i think that is the only thing that i can do.. test drive others altis from the dealer and compare it with mine... how how it goes.. thx for the advise...
