Weird noise on full throttle?
These 2 days, I started noticing weird noises coming from the engine compartment. It happens when it's in gear under full throttle (2nd, 3rd) (Neutral and 1st doesn't have that noise, and I havn't tried 4th yet). And only when the engine revs past 6k. it start making this weird wind noises, it sounds like it's coming from the intake, but I'm not sure.
Do you know what might be the problem? Should I worry?
Can someone please help me out?
Should I worry?
p.s. i have a hks racing suction kit

wind noise?
have you checked the HKS intake to make sure everything is tightened down properly?

random noises are very difficult to track down. a video would help.
any other issues other then the noise? loss of power? CEL? etc?

hm... i'll try and see if i can get it up, but you guys thinks its a loose intake?
It really doesn't happen all the time. Just when its under full throttle, in gear and over 6k rev.
And its'a flapping noise, it sounds like it's coming from under the car. ARGH
it's really hard to explain and a video wuddn't really do much, cuz it's just from 7k -9k, it probably won't be that noticeable in a video

same here i get it att full throttle still trying to figgure that out but mine only does it if i drive my car for about 1 hr and then it will start... I got my compression done and my compression is fine so motor is good.
I have no clue wut it is and have talked to other people on the forum here and they are trying to figure it out then going to let me know wut they find out....
Mine comes from my intake and it sounds like a gargling sound. It kinda even sounds like a muscle car. I also lose power
I tryed making a video but u cant hear it since i was just using a cellphone recorder. Maybe a more exspensive mic video camcorder will work better

OMFG, the sound is coming from under the car, and so i checked under the car today after i parked it. Some liquid was dripping and leaking from under the engine???
Somebody please tell me it's not as bad as it sounds

not to thread jack
but my car i just installed the RB intake w/o duct 2 weeks ago ive removed the Vfad and at 4.5k rpm it goes from deep which is normal to like high pitch air sucking noise which i know isnt cuz when i first installed it it was all deep thoughtout the rpm range. Also ive had a CEL the past 2 days. idk.

it helps if you MOVE THE CAR and then take pics of the fluid. I can't tell what it is from there.
could be anything form A/C to oil to transmission fluid.
can you touch the fluid? what color? consistency?

WTF???!!!!
what does putting 87 fuel have to do with anything? It's not as if the car says, "oh snap! 87 octane fuel inserted. Begin emergency fuel leak!"

I get the feeling you're about to get a very expensive quote from the Mazda dealership...

no... =_= i wasn't saying the fluid has sth to do with the fuel... i was talking abt fuel and the popping flapping noise
yea... the fluid is just from the a/c... =_= i just checked...
and um uh... abt the noise... they are saying is missfiring, so it's either plugs or coils
they are looking at it on the lift right now. what do you guys think?

if you're misfiring, you usually get a blinking CEL. (not always but usualy) If the only problem you have is misfires, you can fix that yourself for MUCH less then the dealership is going to charge you.
