probably a belt slipping or something is vibrating because its not tight enough. does it happen when you free rev it?or only while youre moving?

if you can get someone to rev the car, you might get a better indication of where its coming from. i rekon exhaust or something simple like that. airbox, anything thats connected to the engine thats come loose slightly.

yup, something is loose, sounds like a harmonic resonance thats causing something to vibrate

is it metallic sounding?? might be a blown gasket too, but unlikely

hm.. not quite metailc but it sounds like sumthing rubbing against the chassis or sumthing at high speed

u can feel the vibration inside the cabin too

lol already did all that

yeah feel the vibration inside and hear it

and also the noise is there from outside too

checked all belts cuz of that i spend 1.3K on a full service staright after i got my car

but the noise was still there

im ruling out diff problems too cuz i changed the syncro and all that setting around and the noise was still there

it's gota be sumthing mechanical

I know that sound.

It started after my turbo was done, but only sometimes and under full boost (yep around 4k).

If I take my foot off the accelerator, the noise disappears. Then it says gone when I put my foot back down.

My mates RS is starting to do it (so he says, I haven't heard it).

It is not possible to replicate as it happens to me us at random times.

No Danny, I do not know what it is!

Thought it might be an oil supply prob to the turbo, nothing to do with belts

I am getting the same sound, and have done since i got the car about 2 months ago. hasn't gotten any worse tho, and doesn't happen alll the time. You're right about the rev thing - it happens to me at about 3 grand, only while pulling through torque at higher gears. if the auto kicks back, or I use manual mode, then it doesn't happen. feels like about 3rd or 4th gear. It's really hard to say the sound is consistant tho, I think it doesn't really happen all the time.

only under load

and no it doesnt get louder on speed

it's not constant..

only at 3-4K rpm only half thorttle then when i full throttle it it goes away

Sounds like Turbo time!!!....sounds sort of like a slipping clutch or a rattling sound?.....only under load? Is it there all the time? Does it do it under full throttle?

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
