Once my GT PP engine has warmed up and the idle has reduced to normal a noise starts to come from the motor that sounds like someone shaking a salsa shaker, or like a can of dry beans.
It's a whirring shuuuuka shuuuka type noise. It is rhythmic and very consistent. The frequency is maybe 1 or 2 times per second.
If I slightly press the gas pedal, it goes away. Any RPM over idle, it is gone (or at least masked?). Driving down the road it is not there.
It's super audible when I am in line at a drive thru, being close to a wall on the driver side.
Any ideas? I searched the forum for engine sounds but no one is describing the noise the same way.
The sound bothers me a little bit, but my bigger concern is that it might be suggesting a more serious flaw somewhere on my motor that might roar its ugly head down the road and cause more serious damage.
I'm going in for warranty work this weekend and will ask about it, but was just hoping to hear if anyone else here has heard the same shaking noise.
