  • Weird noise coming from engine (AUDIO)

    The only thing new with the engine is 1. New style pcv valve 2. Changed thermostat back to stock, it had a 160 hypertech thermostat

    And now it's making this weird saw cutter noise, non-stop. At first I thought it was cause the engine was still cold but after plenty of driving it's still there. It never made this weird noise before.

    10-13 seconds you'll hear it the clearest. It's coming right from the throttle body/intake area when I get close under the hood.

        It does sound like a vacuum leak to me too. Did you try putting the old PCV Valve back in to see if the noise goes away?

                ^I know! What's up with that? Mines has 29k on the clock right now and it burns up a quart every 1500 too. I got a uoa after I switched it to amsoil and they said theres is high chance It has "piston ring plating" no clue what that is but when I read "piston ring" I know it ain't good!

                I know something isn't right because the tips on my exhaust can't stay clean for a day and the bumper portion right above the exhaust is black too!
