theouthouse666 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Whats up everyone. I have a 2001 Impreza L with 80K miles. I've noticed lately that between 2000-2500 rpm while moving and in gear, I get a strange metallic noise that sort of sounds like static from a tv. It's just loud enough to be noticeable. My car seem perfectly normal. I just had a new clutch and flywheel put in, but it did it before that as well. I thought it was a heat shield or some exhaust pipe, but all that is fine. I wouldn't rule out the tranny, but everything shifts fine, etc. My starter seems to make a similar noise when I started it up. when I start up my car it makes a sound as if I'm holding the key in start and grinding the starter gears, but the noise I hear while driving is much quieter. The sound I hear is similar to that I guess. But then the last thing, it only makes the noise when its in gear, it doesn't happen if I rev it in neutral. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

nipper Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Heat Sheild. this is common on most cars. Just use a hose clamp to fix it. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theouthouse666 Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 Ill check it again, but the heat shields seem pretty secure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 probably the throwout bearing. did they replace that along with the clutch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
