Im not gonna say anything just listen to the video. The 1st minute is me turning the car on and circling it so skip if you dont want to see that. Please tell me how the car sounds. There is some pretty nocitable sounds that dont sound right. Car runs fine in high rpms as show at the end of the video. Btw the sound after I start the car in the beginning is the doors shaking so dont pay attention to that. I should note that the car is 10 years old with almost 80000 miles on it so the timing belt, spark plugs or whatever needs to be replaced at 100000 has not been changed. Just please let me know whats wrong. Thanks.

 

come on guys. bump

 

Hard to say exactly by not being there. Try checking the fly wheel sheild, maybe dented in and rubbing, maybe a bad bearing in the alt, power steer, etc. If you can try to isolate exactly what area its coming from. Sometimes a friend or 2 one under and 1 listening in the engine bay.. ?

 

Also check the heat shields on the exhaust or possibly a broken hanger ?? I might be way off but just trying to help out.

 

sounds like for 1 your valves need to be adjusted a little
and 2 the noise sounds like your water pump is going bad....

 

Yeah I havent heard anything about the car having its valves adjusted. I heard you need to do that every 30000 miles? Im gonna have to check the manual. Would a water pump going bad cause those weird sounds? Or is it the valves needing adjustment. I drove today and for some reason I didnt hear anything. It was not as hot a day and I notice I can hear it more on a hotter day.
