Default I think it is the same thing I have

It is definitely a weird noise. Sounds like water or air through a pipe. Only happens on my 180FWD above 45-50 MPH. I have an appointment on Monday. The dealership is a good one so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they find it. I will post whatever happens.

It's the only problem I have with the car.

There were some posts about this almost a year ago.

It's normal; if I remember correctly, there's an electric pump in the gas tank system which moves gasoline between seperate compartments of the gas tank. The sound you hear is the gas draining back.
