2005 rx8. 100,000 miles on it. Ran 2 weeks ago with no problems. I had to jump it today and it’s making this noise. Doesn’t sound Internal.

 

Bruce, I see this is your first post. Welcome. Help us help you. Provide as much "specific" information as you can.

- Record and post a video / audio of the sound here.
- Where exactly does it appear the sound coming from?
- When does it make the sound: ...only when cranking..., after starting, ...intermittent, etc.?
- Did anything happen to / with the car?
- Did you recently have any work done?
- Are you current w/ regular maintenance..., coolant, oil, etc.?
