Water splashing noise....
 

There is a noise that sounds like it coming from the center console that sounds like water splashing. I'm not concerned about it or anything, but has anyone else experienced this? I've noticed it after starting the car and on idle. Does anyone know what it might be?

I get this when I start up (at least I think I get this, some liquidy sound). So, I can't offer any advice, but at least you're not alone?

Its air bubbles in the heater core. The heater core is in the dashboard.

The sound is normal, after hard driving a few times it usually goes away because the air bubbles work themselves out.

Yups.....ive also got that same splashing sound somewhere near the centre console....Happens when i start her up..... Been wondering bout it too......

Me too

i started a thread about this subject not too long ago....https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/rushing-water-sound-engine-113174/

if you really wanted to get rid of it, you could either:

1) Flush and change the coolant.
2) Drive up and down steep hills at redline while making abrupt stops every so often.

I believe it's the noise from the windshield washer fluid tank splashing around under the hood. I heard something like that and I knew exactly what it was...just zip tie that sucker down. Check it out.

wow,

not right.

again.
