can someone tell me how to attach a video on the post... i'm trying to post a audio/video of the noise in my car to see if someone can diagnose my problem. thanks
yeah... about the tappin noise, i have it too... but with my car it began after a NASTY miss-shift. i dropped it from 3rd at 8k rpm to 2nd! DUMB ASS!!.... right after i reacted and took it out of 2nd, and the car idled down... it turned off on me... it's had the tappind ever since.. it has turned off on me a couple of times while at a red light, and the tappin only seems to get bad while idling in colder weather.. i live in miami, so right now the weather is cold one day and hot the other.. that's how i noticed.... so you guys think i bent a valve.. or what?
when you misshift and get high enough over redline, you generally F your valves. and i'm willing to bet that you've got at least 1 bent valve. check your compression. hopefully nothing's wrong with anything else, because replacing the valvetrain will be expensive enough by itself.
i get like a whistling noise from 1k rpm to 3k rpm....it might go higher but i cant hear it cuz the intake really roars after 3k.....when i put my a/c on im pretty sure it gets worse....im thinkin its a vacuum line...any ideas...this isnt the whine from the timing belt i was talkin bout b4...that noise is gone.....this is more of a whistle....really aggrevating....any suggestions???
