Hey everyone. Recently I have noticed my car sounding louder than normal. It does when driving normal, boosting and even at idle.

It does not sounds like a lifter tick, rod knock, t-case whine, or exhaust leak.

I have searched and wasn't really able to find anything that seemed like what I am experiencing.

Hopefully someone on here can help and ease my mind a little bit.

If you are not going to help please don't bother posting.

Here is a video that I took. I do not normally drive like an *** hat as seen here. I just did in the vid to try and get the sounds on camera.
Also note, I do not have a t-case whine. The vid makes it sound like I have a bad case of it. Not sure why.

Thanks in advance everyone

I dont mean to not help but from the video i cant tell what exactly you mean by the car is getting louder and i think that is the problem everyone else is having. do you mean the engine itself or what is getting louder to you?

 

What about your clutch? I rode my first clutch out to the end due to me being broke, and it seemed like the car was using more power to get around until I realized the obvious....get a new clutch

 

Did you change your clutch & flywheel recently? If yes, then what brand? I'm facing the same problem...My car gets louder at 4000rpm till 7800...I found out my cracked flywheel is the reason. Now I went back to stock flywheel.. Still the same problem exists. What could be the problem?? Crank???? :'(

 

No worries. the engine just seems to be running louder than usual.

clutch is good. replaced it about a year ago.

act clutch and flywheels. But its louder at idle as well.
