Odd hum sound

Haylo all;

As I was driving, I noticed that when CC is on or I press the gas and hold it at 3250-3400 RPM in 5th gear, there is a low sounding hum. Let go of the gas or turn of CC, and the hum goes away. Only happens at those RPM but I am sure it happens in every gear other than 5th.... any ideas?

Also - does the CC produce a noticeable click when you press the "set/resume" or "cancel" buttons (or any of the buttons for that matter)?

I have an auto so cant help you with the first question. As for the cruise control buttons, mine are silent, no click or anything but I can here the relay click when I turn it on and the light on the dash lights up.

Yeah thats what I meant - I can hear the relay - just wanted to make sure it was normal (I always have music on... the things you hear when its silent )
