Air Release Noise
So kind of a weird question, but I really have not noticed this noise before. I don't want to sound like those people who ask "is this normal?" but I really am wondering b/c I have never heard it. When all is quiet in the car... I rev the engine a tiny bit and hear a faint release of (what sounds like air). It is the same noise as a turbo'd BOV, but is a lot quieter. I can hear it every time I rev & then release the gas pedal. Even driving with no music, I can hear it when I shift. It very well could be normal, but I never heard it before (maybe b/c I always listen to music)
I had a new engine replaced about 2,000 miles ago if that makes a diff. Can anyone enlighten me? |
I've not noticed anything like that with mine, but I'll listen again when I get in it tonight. Do you have a manual or auto?

Manual. It sounds exactly like a BOV does (but obv. I dont have a Turbo). Its very faint, but def. noticable at sit still with no music and other noise.
|
Uh, shutter valve opening on the engine?
VFAD opening? Most likely just the intakes on the engine opening and closing. Different ports open when the engine gets into higher rpms. |
And another quick note, NO power difference or driving difference.
|
probably the VFAD then

I never heard of it when I was driving ( coudln't hear bc of music maybe) When I post about this, people said it was normal. there is my 2 cent, I am not sure if it's same as yours though, similar Penn state Rocks. ;) I had to do it. haha |
