2nd FI unit - chirp - engine sounds broken

I'm have a BRZ and had the chirp within maybe 5k miles. Subaru replaced the FI part, and it was great again, for a while. Now it's HORRIBLE (10K later).

The chirp happens under ALL loads from idle up to almost 2K RPM.

And after driving for a while, you can hear it stopped at lights etc, regardless of ambient temps.

But when it's hot out, MAN is it annoying and LOUD. It really sounds like a bad water pump or other metal-on-metal problem.

I'm embarrassed to drive up near anyone when it's chirping loudly.

So I for one am very VERY interested in a real fix to this.

Steve
