Hi all,
Recently my 2012 GT86 has been making a Rattle/Grinding sound when accelerating in first gear. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
The noise is present after first gear is engaged, then accelerating aggressively/ flooring. It is loudest when taking off uphill, worst when cornering uphill with first gear engaged, and flooring the vehicle - the noise is not bound to a specific RPM, and is only present when accelerating aggressively in first gear. The sound appears to be coming from the front of the vehicle.
The sound can be heard in this YouTube video, recorded from my car.
Transmission/ Clutch?
Diff?
Wheel Bearing?
Suspension?
Heatshield rattle/scrape?
Car is stock, aside from UEL headers. I have recently Changed the trans and Diff oil too, to no avail. 77,000kms on the odo.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
