Wouldn't doubt itYour car is not normal then
Hahah! I wish I could have afforded a 350...Totally happy with my GT though! I had an 11 GT500 and loved it too, couldn't corner for crap but man did it plant you in the seat, and the supercharger whine......and now I need a cold showerMy car does not have it.
Of course its a GT350.
I like all of this but it still leads me to question why the sound doesn't progress past 2800ish RPM? Are you also saying tolerance is why some don't hear the 2k sound too?
This is my 24th car and I did a ton of ride alongs with my dad at his work (retired mechanic) growing up. While not a mechanic myself, I do 90% of my own work on my vehicles. I admittedly know just enough to royally ruin something lol. I like to think I know what normal engine sounds are but this is my first Coyote. It's not paranoia when an unfamiliar sound jumps out at you. Again though, it can be argued the seeds were planted since I was reading about this stuff before I took delivery. I don't think it's a waste of time to share experiences and maybe uncover a likely natural sound and/or learn stuff along the way. I enjoy it every time I drive it, park it, and look back at it as I walk into work. Internet can't confirm or deny any attitude from your post so I'll just reply that if you don't like what you're reading, nobody is forcing it upon you. Hopefully it's a misread on my part and we both have a great day. Actually we should have great days no matter what we read on a car forum lol.
This has been my theory for awhile. It's too predictable and repeatable IMO.
So a couple things....yes you were brainwashed prior to getting your car that there was/is an issue. No worries, since there isn't one. On sharing experiences...there is no problem with that, however on this subject it was played out with the horse being beaten so badly there was nothing left to identify. In the end, it was shown that there was/is no issue with the "noises" the Coyote makes as they are natural harmonics of this particular engine. In the course of the horse being unmercifully beaten, no one was able to show a relation to any engine replacement (some I think were made up to further their false point) or problem they had. That is why you rarely see this subject come up anymore (it was very overwhelming for a several months). Anyone that was trying to prove these noises were/are a problem, have stopped and gone on to other things. So my feelings at this point is that you and anyone else bringing this subject up now is wasting their time. You should first go read the hundreds of posts that ultimately ended thankfully. I am just trying to save you some time by saying ignore the "noises". Not sure what you meant by the internet and the attitude of my post, but I said what I said to try to help you. Lastly, if people did not read anything they did not like or agree with and just ignore it, they would be doing themselves and others a disservice. Never shy away from speaking up because you don't like something someone said. Agree or disagree, always stand up for what you believe is right.
Agreed, that engine has an issue. It does not sound like a good Coyote....or any good engine for that matter. If every Coyote sounded like that, then there would be a reason to be pissed off.
Your '16 doesn't have the port/direct injection. Now, anything that sounds like that video is a problem, but that's not the sound some are referring to as normal.
100% agree with you.
Just trying to keep it civil, seen plenty of threads where things get escalated because someone reads something the wrong way. Sounds like a misread on my part so nothing to worry about.
I get this but maybe it's my thick head that can't get around to not all cars making the same noises. The BBQ tick started after my first oil change and is now seemingly gone after an oil additive. How can it be a normal sound if it's not consistent? I really do wish I took the blue pill.
