Hi everyone,
New to this forum as I have an issue with my ep3 that I can’t really find any info on. I have noticed a noise that has gotten louder over time. At around 3k-3.5k revs I can hear a metallic vibrating or drone noise coming from underneath the rear drivers side of the car from what I can tell. It stops completely at 4k. This is under accel and decel. And gets louder the more the car warms up after starting it from cold, it’s barely there for the first few mins of driving.
Could this be as simple as a heat shield vibrating against the exhaust possibly or does anyone have any ideas? I don’t exactly have much mechanical knowledge to think of what else it could be so any advice or help would be greatly appreciated,
Cheers guys
