Does it get louder when in park and pressing the accelerator? Also does it sound like the noise when a power steering pump is low on fluid or bad?
I had that similar noise and the alternator was bad. You can unplug a wire from the alternator and if the noise goes away you know the alternator is bad. Pull back the water protector cover on the plug on the alternator and squeeze the prongs to unplug. It is typically a mint blend green color. Start car to see if noise is gone. Alternator is bad if noise is gone.

I have a 2007 with 155K miles on it. It makes a loud whirring noise that gets louder when you accelerate. Based on this my mechanic replaced both front wheel bearings and hubs. It was still making the noise so he replaced the intermediate shaft on the front passenger side.
Still making the noise so now he thinks it's coming from the transmission. He said it could be a carrier bearing in the differential (or a pump). Only way to fix is rebuild or replace the transmission, according to him.
Wondering if anyone had this issue and how you resolved it?
