I know my car isn't japanese, but it's asian, so I guess I'll put it here.

anyways, sometime during the bushkill falls drive I noticed my car is starting to rattle when I get about 5500 RPM, it sounds like it's coming from the engine bay ( durrr ) but I cannot find anything loose, I'm not throwing any codes, is this normal ? Maybe I just don't normally hear it because I have my stereo on, but it's getting me worried.


edit; I'm at 58k miles and my powertrain warrenty is only good to 60k, so if I have a problem I want to find it soon

if its in warranty just have the dealer look at it?

edit: just noticed thats your powertrain warranty. if its just something loose i guess its unlikely to be a powertrain part.. sorry :(

check that radiator over flow can. Notorious for rattling themselves loose.

HAHAH omg I just thought about it... 5500 to 6000 RPM your CAI will "gargle". That is the only word I can describe it. Some people describe it as a growl. It is when the air turns from laminar to turbulent flow going into the throttle body when wide open. I will hear it on Tues but I do beleive it is a tibby thing and your ok.

Think of it as a shift light! =)
