Odd Metallic Sound From The Engine Bay
Please read my description and if you have any idea what it may be, don't be afraid to share. Thanks. Oh, and please listen with headphones.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovJ7O37oCfg You'll hear the metallic sound at or around 4k rpm. |

You tried checking under your vehicle for any damage or for loose/bent metal, like exhaust hitting chasis?

Mine is doing the same thing when i am taking off. Its probably something in the exhaust loose or as someone posted earlier a loose heat shield cause mine sounds like it is coming from right under the passenger side where the exhaust is.
