Unfortunately, I have to take some aftermarket parts...this isn't going to be fun.

My friends BRZ, who got it 3 months before me, is perfectly fine. No crickets.

My personal video of "crickets"


Forgot this thread existed, so small update.

Was at Alki beach over here in Seattle last weekend. I turned the car on and heard sounds coming from the front of the car. Put my ear near the hood then opened it. Low and behold, chirping sounds! It was not as prominent sounding as in Panda's video. Thought it was one of the belts or something, then remembered the chirping issue.

-Same gas station, same pump every time
-Almost 900 miles on the odo currently
-Really hot last weekend

Brushed it off and kept driving. No chirping sounds since Saturday. If it does come back, I'll just turn my annoying techno and eurobeat up louder! xD
