It is definitely RPM related. Ive tried checking in gears 1, 2, and 3 and then up shifting, etc.. and it always happens when over 5K RPM. I could be going 80mph in 6th gear and no noise.
I guess It could be described as a knock?
Like I said earlier, I feel its coming from the steering column area, or just right behind the actual steering wheel or gauges. Hard to tell where noises in cabin come from sometimes.
