My 2011 Chevy Cruze 6 speed is making a whistling noise, at least that's the closest thing I can come up with regarding the sound. It sounds like blowing a whistle without the ball inside. It happens upon acceleration and when accelerating it gets higher in pitch and once it reaches 60+mph the sound stops. Any ideas?

Both issues (this and shutting off with AC on) sound like your PCV disc in the valve cover has ruptured.

You DO NOT need one of the PCV fix kits the 1.4T cars do, but the diaphragm built into the valve cover just needs to be replaced.

Usually accompanied by a P0171, P1101, occasional P0106, and whistling/honking noise from the top of the valve cover.

This is the noise its making.
