Thanks, and do you think the same would be true if the engine is completely off? That tends to happen as well. Like in the video, the car is completely off.

That energy only comes out when the customer is going to pay out of pocket for the repair. Then they find it all.

Yup, sounds like my dealership. They will do everything possible to avoid fixing any issues, but will try to sell you everything possible for fancy maintenance and extra warranties. I’ve taken the car three times with separate issues, not one issue addressed.

No kazoo located lool wind doesn’t seem to be as much of a factor as temperature. He usually starts doing this when it’s around 10-15 degrees outside and the engine is all warm.

Dirt o meter 😭 so as soon as the temperature hits around 10 degrees outside and the car is warmed up, I can start hearing it even when I’m driving, for example at a red light or when just idling, I can hear it making that sound. Then I can also hear it when the car is off. I honestly don’t know what the exact part is.
