Sometimes the blinker fluid runs low, making it act up. I’d check that too

Scanned the car, no codes? I'm hoping it's the battery issue. Picking one up later in the afternoon today. That's the first time that's happened. No warnings on dash, car started up no problem either.

Soundclips don't do justice. I was researching for a good while and YouTubing soundclips and all that but you really gotta hear it in person to be able to decide.

At cruising speed I haven't found it to be droning at all, it can get a little bit loud at light throttle around town though.
