Help identifying an engine noise?
Hey guys,
I'm having an engine noise that I can't identify. Any help would be much appreciated! It happens intermittently in the lower RPMs of gears 2-4. I'm going to take it to a mechanic tomorrow, but it's intermittent and I am at a loss for how to describe the sound. I also heard it once on a passing G35 so I figure someone out here might know more about it.
It is very quiet in this video, but you can definitely hear it with headphones. Listen as I'm accelerating in 2nd gear.
Here are some loops of the sound: Loop 1, Loop 2
How would you describe that sound? Is it an engine rattle? Any ideas as to the cause?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: It's a 2005 G35 6MT, 45K miles. No mods, all stock.
