Hum around 3k??
Hey guys new to the flat 4 world, here's my story, I just picked up a 2014 FRS monagram edition 30k on the clock. So I've had her for about 3 weeks now. It's lowered on bc coils, running 18" with 265s front and rear, "fat bitches" so I've noticed while driving in 3rd and 4th, around 3k rpm there's a hum not at 2900 or 3100 but right there at 3, I've got stock exhaust and intake, I'm just wondering if it's a normal thing with the flat 4 or if it's maybe something else. I know very little about this car, but from what I can tell it has been taken very well of. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Where-ish in Washington do you live? I ask because there's a shit ton of us owners up here. I suggest meeting up with someone to compare notes.

No, it's not normal ...... leastwise not with my all stock (cept for the muffler) 2013 FR-S. Those are pretty big tires for that car ...... could it be the tires making the hmmmm .. ?? I suggest you try upping the tire pressure a couple of pounds to see if it goes away. Maybe rotating them to see if that helps. Do I read that right that the exhaust is all stock .. ?? That would be unusual for a pre-owned FR-S. You might check and make sure all the exhaust connections/hangars are secure. humfrz |

If you get it at 3k in neutral and not moving, that would be something vibrating that shouldn't, or at least could be tightened up or shimmed somehow.
Or humfrz is catching some Zs in the back seat. |

Just to clarify, it happens at 3000 RPM in all gears? Or just cruising in 6th? It's hard to tell where sounds are coming from in this car, but can you get a sense of the direction from which it originates (front, back, underneath you, etc.)? Quote:

Not sure if I'd be man enough to ride around with purses strapped to the sides of my bike, just so I can ride from one bar to the next. It'd definitely have to have tassels on the handlebars though...lol. And I'd have to wear fingerless gloves and a Village People vest. |
