Sound shield over fuel pump?
Is that just a sound shield covering the high pressure fuel pump to reduce the crickets?
I took it off when I was diagnosing the sound awhile ago. Thing is darn heavy and is insulated with foam. I doubt its for heat since its on top? If so doesn't that prove toyota/subaru knew of the problem before hand? Possible good weight saving! |

Except when you remove it, your car will sound like a swarm of locusts as it drives by. My sanity is not worth a pound of weight savings.
And Toyota knew that all high pressure fuel pumps make noise. Nature of the beast. |
