just got FI metallic HFC, odd noise, suggestions please
Just put on FI metallic HFC's, there is an odd noise which only occurs between 2600-2800 rpm only on deceleration. it also occurs when in neutral just revving it up. as the rpms come down it makes a noise I can only decribe as a rattle snake Zzzzzzz. I put it on the lift at work everything is tight, and its only coming from the drivers side. Any suggestions on what it could be?? :confused:
|
by the way fellas, so far I put about 350 miles on them
|
I've never had good luck with HFC, they maybe taking a **** already man, mine only lasted a few k miles.
|
i have that too. i just ignore it (never really gave much thought about it)...mainly cause i'm too busy to worry about it at the moment. things have been kinda hectic lately.
give rick a call to see what's up and lmk too! doesn't seem like it's hurting my car or anything, which is why i just kinda brushed it off. i figured it was normal for HFCs. we'll see... |
any updates on this?
i'm hoping mine will go away after the HKS install |
Im just waiting for rick to get back with me...
|
You probably have a leak. Did you replace the gaskets?
|
yea.. I replaced them with the gaskets FI provided.
|
Is it the rasp that comes from HFC, i thought that was around 3500 though...
|
well....see the thing is that is doesnt occur during acceleration. It only occurs on decel at around 2600-2800 rpm. like I mentioned before you can be just sitting in the car revving it up & it makes that ZZZzzzzz noise.
its actually quite annoying. |
that does sound annoying
|
i installed the same cats on my car two days ago. i know what noise your talking about. i was a little concerned at first when i heard it but i figured its just normal for a metalic cat to do that so i havent payed any attention to it.
|
geeeeeeez man :mad: , if thats normal for metallic cat, how are you supposed to profile riding around. its embarrassing really. dont get me wrong, I love em' but I dont know if I can be riding around like that.
|
mine goes away after a couple minutes of driving i think
either that or i just forget about it :p |
Now I feel extra stupid. I have this noise too with the FI HFC. I thought it was my new engine rattling already, must just be the cats. Ill have to ask Tony or Rick about this.
