Hmmm....that could be the case. I went past 5k rpm around 300 miles. How can you not rev it past 5, heck even 6k rpm's!? I haven't passed 7k though.

We'll see after a service check up I guess.

It's been extremely hard, but a lot of patience (for a change cause usually I don't have any)!

I haven't got my 86 yet here in Australia (currently In production). I got a few questions, Does it only start chirping once engine has warmed up? Have you tried spraying WD-40 on each bearing to try to figure out where the sound is coming from? It may just be an idler pulley instead of DI.

I can't hear it too well unless I open the hood and stand in front of the engine.

Alright you jerks, checked this morning and now I have a faint chirping. I can only hear it with the hood open but not from the cab. Hit 700 miles this morning.

Y must you toy with my OCD like this?!

It's better to be aware about this kind of stuff than to be ignorant/unaware!

Does anyone else get single chirp during driving condition? Sounded more like a tweet.

I just hit 1200 miles and I heard the chirping for the first time. I didn't have it before.

I've noticed that tonight too. Seems to happen only if I give it more gas then what's currently going on.
