Requesting help, engine whine
Hello evom family, I've recently aquire a strange whine coming from my engine bay. I noticed this noise on monday morning in my route to work, after some good fun driving down country roads on Sunday afternoon. After I got home, I let the car cool down, and parked it for the night. No noise was evident throughout the time I drove it on Sunday, Monday morning however, it was just there out of no where. I originally thought it was the dreaded t/c death whine, however I've now come to realize that it makes the whine even when not moving and simply revving the engine. Here's what I've gathered over the past 2 days:
- The noise is present only under load.
- Typically it's more prominent around 2500 rpms.
- When cruising or in decel, there's no noise, I really only notice I let off of the accelerator.
- It's louder when you're under the hood, as well as it seems to be coming from the engine.
I made a video whIle driving the car home, you hear the whine very prominently from the video. Also, please excuse the popped air bag, I have yet to get around to fixing it. The car is a rebuilt title, I've owned it for about 1 yr and 7 months.
Mods:
- Walbro 255
- Mishimoto fmic
- Spoolin up cop
- STM egr delete
- Wadefab catch can
- Wadefab i/c upper and lower pipes
- 3" turbo back straight pipe exhaust
- Tune by potter

Thank you in advance for replies, I hope to have this figured out, it's kinda nerve racking.

Also, bump! Reevaluated the noise with more than one person listening, sounds as if it may be coming from serpentine area. Will be pulling off the belt and checking to see if it still Makes noise.
