Engine noise
 
Notice this noise after driving for a while. Is it normal sound? I can't reproduce the noise when cold start, then rev to 3000 rpm a few times. The noise only happens after driving for a while.

Sound very normal to me. Just sounds like the valvetrain doing it's thing.

It does sound a little bit louder than normal, but not anything to really worry about imo. Sound is so subjective on the internet. What oil are you running? A slightly heavier oil might quiet it down a little bit. The injectors make a little bit of noise too.

Mine sounds like a garbage disposal after long periods of driving. Usually when it's warmer out and after about 1.5 hours of driving.

^hahaha no seriously you only hear it after driving because the rpms are down low enough and it has solid valvetrain and loud injectors.

This shows you how loud a mechanical car can be at idle be happy the z's are as quiet as they are.

Jsolo 01-25-2012 11:32 PM

sounds like injector to me...imho

mad_g37 01-27-2012 12:37 PM

If it is the injector, should it be that loud? And why only hear one injector making the noise. Will take to the dealer next month. Thanks
