Weird Sound

i have a 2000 EB V8. When you floor it or are kinda putting a load on it in 3rd around 3500 RPM^ it had like a buzz coming from in front of the passenger air bag. We took it to get the oil changed at a quick lube and the guy said he thinks that it could be the air bag and that it could prolly come out at any time you floor it, phss what does he know ( I HOPE.....) If any of you have had this prob any info would be greatly apprichated!!

PLEASE anyone correct me if i am wrong,(and i hope im not) an airbag only makes one sound: BANG...as it deploys, and it hurts too.

There is a motorized door behind the glove box to the right for the cabin climate control....im not sure if that could be related.

Also your Airbag idiot light isnt flashing is it?

Also, Also Did you have the pedal to the floor, so that the throttle was wide open? (WOT)
