Engine sound....?

Engine sound....?

Postby Madpistol » Tue Dec 27, 2005 9:54 pm

I've got the 2.4L 4 cylinder in my '02 solara

how is it supposed to sound? Constant, smooth buzz? or is it a "WahWahWahWahWah..." sound?

I need to know. I think my engine may be screwed up... :cry:

Posting a video or a .wav file might help us determine what normal and what's not.

Hopefully it's all normal!

2.4 are really smooth (i'd say they are the smoothest 4 banger current on stateside). If you think you have a problem...it could small stuff.

ok. if I hear it again, I'll use my phone and get a recording of it. I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to post it though. I ran it this morning and it didn't sound unusual, so it's probably nothing to worry about.

BTW, I'm getting dual-subs put in right now, so I don't have the car with me.
