I get a weird trickle when accelerating. Gets faster the faster you go - seems to be coming from the engine. Goes away at about 4000 rpm. Not really loud but I want it gone. Any ideas? Sorta like a card in a bicycle spoke.

 

maybe your car is urinating.

 

detonation?

Sound a little like marbles in a bag, just a little muffled?

No - I don't think it's that. Best to describe it's like a tttttttttttt sound. Quiet and consistent. There was a similar thread to this before - could it be that my valves need adjusting?

<<<<Was thinking valves needing adjusting>>>>
I know when my oil needs changing the sound of my valves changes though . Maybe I am crazy but I can always tell when its time for an oil change just by the sound of the motor .

 

I just did an oil change. It's not there when i rev the car stationary. It's there when I press on the gas while moving. The second I let of the throttle it slowly fades away. It is in every gear in the middle rpm range.

 

your an idiot.

it dosent do it at idle?
check your axles

 

the injectors make sound !! sounds like it on mine !! when i hit vtec it is gone ! so is my friends car !!!

 

I can't think of anything else. Sorry, good luck.

Don't be a ***, you have made 2 posts on this thread, and both of them are useless.

 

Do you think some injector cleaner would do the job?

 

sounds like detonation to me...because it only does it under a load? but i could be wrong...check your valve lash also

 

detonation or valves.
