Default 7000 rpm whine in the v-tec in an 07 si sedan

occasionally i will get to about 7000 rpms in my 07 si sedan and it has a different whine to it. it doesnt make this sound all the time and i was wondering if anyone else hads heard that or would know if that is a problem or if i am just hearing things. i kno the v-tec kicks in at 6000 and its supposed to sound different but this sound just doesnt seem right when i hear it. please respond if you have any info to help me out. thanks.

If there was something wrong with the vtakkkk solenoid a CEL would have came on. V-tec doesn't engage if your engine is cold so there will be a difference in sound but not feel.

Youre probably hearing noise from the transmission.

It's probably the rocket boosters igniting.

I think 4 kids sitting in the same room all just made hondatech accounts to be funny. Hurray for 07 members


Just curious also as to why people just dont bring their cars to the dealer these days? Dont you get a warantee with your car for a reason?

Really? What do you have them check for? Weekly check up is pretty time consuming and why didn't you ask them the last time you went there? Since it's at least once a week you have them check on your car.

i call bs...somebody else who drove the car would have heard the noise I would assume? Or maybe you would have mentioned it to them more specifically so that the tech could take a little longer of a ride?

boin to tha dealership once weekly is kinda waste of time if you ask me unless you drag race it and they dont know. but still once a week in over doin it. go maybe once a month if that.

Since when did "VTEC" begin to get spelled as "VTECH". Thought that was a phone brand..........but I guess it's just my imagination.
