MRLancaster Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I have a sound when I'm accelerating.....its only the first few minutes of driving, it sounds almost like a tree frog.... 0.o It wont do it if you rev it in idle....only when driving....Anyone have an idea of what this sound could be?? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k5CTLNw04w]Gray/Grey treefrog (Hyla versicolor) calling - YouTube[/ame] It sounds almost like that except not as high pitch......My friend said it may be a bearing, I'm just scared the motor may be nearing death. T.T Last saturday a whole bunch of smoke came out of the muffler, and then a few days later the high pitch sound started. As said before its not constant just the first few minutes of driving. Then its fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soloz2 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Have you checked the oil and other fluids under the hood? Any CEL? Can you take a video or get a sound clip of the actual noise?
