It almost sounds like you have something possibly in the intake or the air filter - as you suck in and open the throttle, it starts to rattle. Any loose wiring that might move around under load or anything like that under the hood?

I'd really need some more information my dude - I faintly hear it but a few runs of acceleration say 5 runs might be sufficient to help diagnose.

Also, where do you hear it in the car? Really need to try and pinpoint a general area.

Let us know, thanks!

Yeah, posting in a rush is always awesome...

The noise seems to be coming from the engine bay area. It only makes that noise when lugging hard at low RPM. Once it hits 3K, it goes away.

I have looked in the bay and cannot see any loose wiring. I take a look at the exhaust and make sure nothing is rubbing etc. but it does sound higher in the engine area, not below the car.

I will also see if I can get a better set of videos!!

Cheers,
