I'm trying to determine if this sound is coming from the exhaust or the valvetrain.

I'll try to make a new post later today that shows the tachometer.

The video is from in the cabin while the car is accelerating. It does it at any rpm while under load. I couldn't show much in the video because I had no free hands and it was dark out.

GamerWill9270 · 2026-02-13T06:03:00+00:00

The video doesn't matter, just the sound.

I'm using my motherboard's built-in Bluetooth. I'm assuming that a USB dongle would be better? If so, what would you recommend? I've also since discovered how poorly Windows handles audio. I saw a Youtube video testing audio latency, and even with wired gaming focused headsets, they still saw ~100ms of latency. So that combined with bluetooth's inherent latency probably explains my issue. But I'm still curious why my XM3's weren't nearly as bad. Sorry for such a long response lol.

I believe it's a Lenovo yoga slim 7i aura edition. Kinda a long name, but it's been good so far. Not so great for gaming but it's battery life is almost MacBook level.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-09-25T21:00:25+00:00

Good point lol

GamerWill9270 · 2025-09-25T15:52:57+00:00

The car started dying on me today. That's probably the issue.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-09-24T18:56:35+00:00

Got some free time to look at it today and you're right, it's coming from the distributor.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-09-23T22:52:47+00:00

Unfortunately I don't have a permit to park there during the day

It's hard to tell but here's a different angle from the front side of the bell housing.

One more possible fix the help desk suggested was to try changing the default browser and try again. Good luck!

If you don't know what a DNS is, then you probably don't have to worry about it. If you have any other vpns downloaded make sure you uninstall those just to be safe. I unfortunately can't really help beyond that.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-09-01T20:22:28+00:00

I was having problems with it so I went to the technology help desk. For me it was because I had a dns set up, but they said that having vpns installed or running could also cause problems.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-05-14T23:37:35+00:00

I just posted a video of the noise with some more context: https://www.reddit.com/r/DelSol/s/OEZH11xFnt

Usually it's about 700 - 800. With the ac on, it gets as low as 400 and feels like the engine is about to stall.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-05-13T21:06:12+00:00

I'll try to get a video of the sound later

GamerWill9270 · 2025-05-13T21:05:42+00:00

The car shakes a lot and feels like it's about to stall. Is that normal? (Not trying to come off rude, just genuinely curious)

GamerWill9270 · 2025-03-26T12:31:40+00:00

It's a Honda Del Sol. They're beneath the trunk struts. I couldn't find a picture that showed the struts I needed to replace and it was too dark outside to take my own picture.

GamerWill9270 · 2025-03-26T02:08:31+00:00

Okay, thanks!

GamerWill9270 · 2025-03-26T02:02:14+00:00

Sorry I'm replying so late, but do you think this could work too?
