FR-S Loud Engine Noise
Hey guys,
I went through the threads (i swear) and could not find this particular noise thread. It happens every time when the engine is idling. Could someone tell me if it is normal? Seems a bit loud for a car with less than 1000 miles. Any help would be much appreciated. |

First half the video sounds completely normal, second half sounds like you leaned on something that began to vibrate with the engine. If it's consistent (the second half the video) and you can't make sense of it take it in. If it sounds like the first half of the video 90% of the time your car sounds perfectly normal to me.

Time going over the crickets thread I have them but that's not it. Hmm the vehicle was already at operating temperature when it came on, shut the engine off for 30 secs then turned it on and it went away (this is when I took the video) so it like resets itself. Just sounds like a huge increase in the noise Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free |

mine sounds like that. It's like an accessory fan turns on to cool the car and the idle dips a little bit so it's more clackety. It's even worse with the AC on. I think it's normal. These motors just sound like poo in general.

I'm a fan of the theory that most of the noises are fairly "normal" noises for modern engine but we simply aren't accustomed to hearing them. Most cars are much more heavily soundproofed than the 86 (let alone the sound pipe).
It at least helps with my anxiety. |

That's the normal sound of the fuel system going into DI only mode at warm idle.
When you start the car, it runs on port injection only for a few seconds, then switches to DI when the idle is stable, after warming up the catalysts and engine coolant if needed. |
