my car has been doin this for a while and i finnaly decided to post and ask fellow HT members... when in any gear, just before i hit vtec from about 5000-5400 (my vtec hits at 5500) i hear a click tink tink, almost like an electircal short kinda noise, and it does it every time just before vtec. Any ideas as to what this could be?

 

It's your mind boggling......

j/k, where is it coming from? Maybe a heatshield?

 

member Daily Interlude claims to have same exact symptoms you describe... Wish I had an answer or an idea... Of course, Ive never heard it when riding with him...

 

when my vtec comes on it sounds like a flash from a camera lol

 

its comin from engine bay, id say from drivers side of engine bay, but it might sound like that cause im sittin on that side... idk it doesnt seem like anything bad, im just curious as to waht it is. and i dont have a head shield, only does it right before vtec, and it doesnt sound like a rattle either

 

bump for the duece duece
