Accord :: Throttle Body Vibration - High Frequency Rattle Noise Inside Engine Compartment


Apr 27, 2015

So I'm at my wits end trying to locate (and fix) a loud, high frequency rattle noise inside the engine compartment.

It can be heard when applying the gas pedal a certain amount. In other words, I can "find" the noise and maintain it at a certain rpm.

The noise is coming from the back of the engine near the firewall. It feels and sounds like it's coming from the throttle body plate and vibrating the gas pedal. I cleaned the plate and it isn't loose.

The issue doesn't seem to be affecting engine performance.

The sound is noticeable while driving (under load). When in park, I can find an rpm where the throttle body seems to take a heavy wave of vibration from the engine and hum (but not nearly as loud as while driving). Issue existed before I put on new motor mounts, and still persists after replacing all 4 (although the vibration and noise are reduced).

Honda - Accord :: 2008 - After Cleaning Throttle Body Getting Code P0507 - High Idle?

08 Accord. After replacing the starter and cleaning the throttle body I keep having a CEL and the P0507 code.

Checked for leaks around intake, vacuum lines, etc. found none.

Tried the relearn procedure and still no luck. Car idea higher than normal ( just over 1000 rpms warm). Also feels like it wants to pull even when stopped.

So I figure I have either:-damaged the throttle body somehow cleaning it- Have incorrectly implemented the re learn procedure- missed a vacuum leak ( possible but doubtful)- or something else I don't know about

Golf V R32 :: Speaker Has Vibration / Rattle Noise With Certain Frequency

I need some speaker upgrade recommendations that'll fit into the door cards - specifically the subwoofers - I've replaced an OEM speaker in the driver side once already and it's doing the same thing as before it has a weird vibration/rattle noise with certain freqs. It may very well be the way it's sitting in there but I doubt it.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: 2007 - High Pitch Rattle / Engine Vibration Noise

I have a 2007 Sonata, 2.4L 4cyl. and it is making some weird noise as of late. I have done some research and from what I have read it seems like it may be a bad engine mount. One thing to note is that the noise really only happens when the car is cold and hasn't warmed up yet or on a cold day.

Basically the best description is that the noise is a high-pitched rattle/vibration noise. The noise seems to match the vibrations of the engine but doesn't seem to get more intense if I rev the engine. The noise does get quieter if I put it in neutral but it is still there. The noise also happens even if the car is parked and off, and I do something like shut the door or trunk. I haven't gotten a chance to get in there and look under the hood myself to try...

Prius (Gen 3) :: Strange Rattle Coming From Inside Main Body Of Car

I strange "tinny" rattle has started and I cannot seem to find the cause. The location seems to be on the driver side some place in front of the gas panel door and someplace behind the rear door. It seems to be coming from something inside the main body of the car! If I slam the rear door I hear it for a few seconds.

Camry :: 2003 Toyota LE - Loud Noise From Inside Engine Compartment

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4 cylinder

I am experiencing a loud noise which is getting worse from inside my engine compartment. I took off the heat shield assuming it was coming from the exhaust manifold but it is not. It sounds more like it is coming from the intake manifold. Now I would assume it was the intake manifold issue that has been described in many threads but it is not a vibration or clanging sound. It just sounds like air is escaping from my intake. What baffles me is that the sound is loudest in drive. Then neutral is the next loudest, then reverse there is very little unordinary sound.

I hear it a little bit when I am going like 15-20 MPH in reverse and let off the gas to decelerate. There is a noticeable noise increase just at idle too. I checked and all fluid levels are good. I changed the tranny fluid about a month ago and according to the dipstick it is right on where it should be. The sound is increasing and I am worried about what it may be. It sounds as if it has an exhaust leak but I do not see anything.

Pontiac :: Persistent Ticking Noise Coming From Inside The Engine Compartment

I have a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am with about 160K miles on it. Over the last month or two I have noticed a persistent ticking noise coming from inside the engine compartment. It sounds like it might increase in frequency along with the engine speed. It is loudest when I pull up in a drive-thru or next to another car and roll down my window. It is audible when sitting or while moving. Doesn't seem to make a difference if the car is hot or cold. I checked the oil and it appears to be full. It sounds like it's coming directly out of the engine block itself. I get the oil changed every 3,000 miles like clockwork.

Touareg :: Noise Or Rattle In Engine Compartment At Low Speeds And On Uneven Pavement

2007 Touareg with 19",V6, with 10,700 miles

Problem: Noise or rattle in engine compartment, at low speed (less than 25miles/hour) on uneven pavement (not potholes). Can be replicated over and over.

The dealer acknowledge the noise and has tightened all suspension parts, greased all joints, replace front-right shock and bushings (for some reason the noise is more prevalent on Right side), put some sort of tool with sensors in different areas of the chassis to "hear" noise differences while driving to determine the culprit.

Description: To me, the noise sounds like there is something lose in either the engine compartment or the area where the wipers are located. Sort of like if there was something (plastic maybe) hitting the chassis (only at slow speeds - I cannot hear it when driving faster I guess because of engine and road noise). I have not been able to figure it out.

The noise was present only on another 2007 with 8K miles.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Noise When Coming To Stop / Sound Is Located Inside Engine Compartment

It's a lite creaking clunk/shifting sound and only occurs in forward and when braking to a stop.It only makes the noise... when the brakes are initially applied.If the brakes maintain their engagement the noise no longer occurs.So... if the peddle is intermittently pressed when braking to a slow stop the slight shift/clunk noise will occur on each depression of the pedal.

The sound is located inside the engine compartment..guessing related to the brakes /or suspension components.If I were to take a stab at it's location in the bay.I would think it's loudest nearer the driver's side.I don't really hear it when I brake hard/stop abruptly.It's fairly audible within the cabin.I can't say it's a clunk... at least not fully yet but something has to be shifting slightly !? well maybe the front brake calipers/bolts are loose and the caliper is moving slightly... ? Or maybe a loose bolt on the suspension might be culprit.Could even be described similarly that of a dry coil-over seal compressing.but surely these struts/shocks can't have failed at only 30k ?I haven't pulled the front wheels off, yet, to inspect.

Very difficult for me to ascertain what might be moving/shifting while I'm operating the vehicle to make it occur.But I have to believe that fault lay with either the brakes or suspension.I'd also like to avoid the cost of a dealership diagnosis

some facts:
2010 LX
30K (well maintained/2nd Owner)

Prius (2010-12) :: Check Engine Light Just Lit Up / High Frequency Noise When Motor Stopped

My Prius just reached 200000 km this week. I bought it at 180000 km 2 years ago, I don't drive it that much simply because I work from home.

Today, a sunny day, 0 degrees, the check engine just lit-up. I opened the hood and checked fluid levels, all OK. I started it and listened to the engine, running as usual. However, when the motor stopped (hybrid ON), I can hear a high frequency noise. I don't remember hearing this noise, but I don't think I ever opened the hood with the engine Off but powered On.

How can I get the check engine code ? I assume I need a connector, right ?

Prius V :: High Frequency Vibration At Highway Speed?

My Prius v has 1300 miles. I didn't notice at first but now I notice a constant high frequency vibration in the car, especially at highway speeds. Took car to a tire shop and had tires dynamically balanced, same problem. I think it must be the toyo low profile tires or its in the drive train and just inherent to the hybrid system. Seems to be the same whether in eco mode or ev. Vibration is the same on smooth or rough roads. Dealer service manager says he is not aware of any problems. Suggests bring car in for a test drive and compare with another new one.

Sonoma :: High Frequency Vibration After Driving For 30 Minutes On Freeway

After driving for 30 minutes on the freeway, my Sonoma develops a high freq vibration that seems to increase after it starts. lessens a little as I slow, but does not go away until after the car has been parked for a while, but not as noticeable under about 30.. I have experienced this the last three days on my commute to and from work. Did have the breaks checked. I did have a clunk sound when i released the brakes at a stop, but that went away after the first brake check where they did not find anything, but just cleaned out the dust and readjusted. The vibe is pretty strong and makes me nervous to drive.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: High Frequency Vibration Very Noticeable At 45 - 55 MPH

Just got my 2014 SCREW 6.5bed with eco boost. Truck has a high frequency vibration very noticeable at 45-55 MPH. So bad the rear view mirror is blurry. Took it to the dealer and they said the e-brake was dragging and fixed that and said the vibration was gone. Not gone. Did some searches and found a number people reporting vibration issues possibly related to drive shaft issues.

Took this video of the slip yoke at the T-case idling in first gear, sent it to the dealer and they said that's normal. I don't think that looks normal. Does that looks normal?

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Random Vibration And Noise From Under Body Near Engine

For the past month or so, my RX has been making this weird vibration and noise from the under body near the engine (maybe transfer case?) It is usually when it's cold and at low speed. But sometimes it does it even when the engine's warmed up for couple minutes.

I did change the transfer case fluid and rear differential about 3 months ago. Not sure if this is related.

Camry :: 2004 V6 LE - High Idle After Throttle Body Cleaning

I have a 2004 V6 LE with about 135k miles. I cleaned the throttle body two weeks ago, just because I hadn't ever done it. It wasn't too dirty. Before the cleaning, it idled at < 1k revs. Now, when I start the engine cold, it revs at around 1500, sometimes higher. It goes back to normal after the engine warms up to operating temperature.

Also, I hear a very slight high-pitched whining (maybe hissing?) noise when I accelerate. The noise is more prominent when the engine is cold. I checked for vacuum leaks but couldn't find any.

It feels like I'm depressing the gas pedal a little bit when I have it in drive or reverse, and it wants to pull harder than usual. When I bring the car to a stop with light brake pressure, as it drops into first gear, the car gives a slight tug forward, again, as if the gas pedal is depressed. I mention this to show that it's not just an issue with the rpm at startup.

I suspect that the issue lies with the throttle position sensor, which I may have jostled when I moved the throttle valve. The method I used when cleaning was, I first tried opening the valve by hand with the ignition off, but the resistance was much higher than I had anticipated. So I did the key-in method by turning the ignition to ON and putting a brick on the gas pedal. There was a high-pitched whine coming from somewhere in the engine bay when the key was ON, which I had not noticed before; I wonder if that is normal.

This seems to be a rather common issue after cleaning the throttle body cleaning, but there doesn't seem to be any consensus solution besides to wait it out.

Camry :: 2002 XLE - High Idle After Cleaning Throttle Body

2002 Camry XLE.

I cleaned my throttle body today. Since the throttle plate moves by a motor, in order to keep it open, I turned the key to ON and held the gas pedal down by using some weight.

After I put everything back, the idle was high 2000+, then stays at 1300 to 1400 range. I drove about 10 miles and it is still the same. When stopped at a light in drive, the idle is still 1000

Did I mess up the e-throttle or the throttle position sensor? (Since I used a weight to hold the gas pedal down, I am worried now).

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Tapping Noise In The Engine Compartment - Steering Vibration?

In 2010 i purchased a 2005 Lexus GX470 w/ 52k miles. It had 2 previous owners and you could tell it had been garage keep and most likely not their weekday car because low miles and 3rd row was in mint condition. Up until late last year the car has been great. I use it to tow my boat and the only thing besides regular oil/filters and its 60k checkup was to replace the drive shaft for the TSB/clunk noise on stopping.

I am currently having two issues that have been becoming worse.

1st is the knocking or tapping noise in the engine compartment. Below is a link to the video. This was after driving for approx 15 minutes. It doesn't do it 10/10 times, but is probably happening 1/2 the time now when i drive it. Oil is 10W30 Full Synthetic by MobileOne and just replaced today to see if that changed anything. I purchased 2 replacement knock sensors a few weeks back but haven't had the time to break it down to swap them out. Figured since the belt needs to be done at 90k and my car is 10yrs old I might as well replace the timing belts at the same time. When the AC is on or car is in drive it doesn't knock strangely enough. In the video you can hear the AC click on/off and knock when its off. I'm hoping this isn't a bad engine or rod or something... Thoughts?

2nd is the steering vibration. I noticed there is a TSB on that for replacing the steering column and other parts and assume I should do thing soon as well. Depending on the payment or temperature it will do this at times around 60ish MPH. Again, its not consistent, but is very noticeably while driving when it is. Tires have approx 40% tread remaining and only the driver side tire seems slightly more worn on the inside than the outside.
