Or it could be the dreaded "change engine soon" sound, caused by failing 'O' rings in the cooling system.

I have the same problem and was curious to why it had been doing it aswell. My car is completely stock except the DP and exhaust. So burping the coolant should fix it?

Talking

Once again the FD slurpy heater has returned to terrorized a newb.
I can list some other noises to worry about if you wish?
Like the moo-fart intake sound from HELL.

Off topic but when i go full throttle the motor makes loud noise and the car gets hard to steer in a straight line. Do i need an alignment?
