Weird Sound
Hi Guys,
a few weeks ago, I change my transmission oil and filled it up with PENTOSIN FFL-2. Now every time i start my car, about three seconds after ignition there's a fairly loud creaking sound coming from under the car (it sounds like something's moving/engaging, not sure exactly where its coming from.. sometimes its at the back, sometimes it sounds like the middle and sometimes it sounds like its coming from the transmission) but there's no problem with gear shifts.. so I'm a little scared! |
that's gonna be hard to diagnose. I would suggest going back to the OEM SST fluid and then checking to see if the sound goes away. these transmissions are known to be finnicky when anything other than the OEM fluid is used.

Eric from Kozmic Motorsports is a known expert in the SST, and he swears by the OEM fluid. he is one of the few extremely knowledgeable people about the SST.

Yeah the real bitch is when you check you Manual, it says nothing about doing an oil swap early on, it says 60k(i think) and apparently, that's not correct, but I'm sure the dealers would get lots of crap and wouldn't sell as many cars if they recommended changing the oil that often.

mines a one off thing (every time you start the car) and it sounds like something metal is engaging in place but it doesn't sound so healthy, like i said its about 3 seconds after i start the car.. so would any of you what happens to activate within that time frame. AWD pump ? would that make such a sound. I guess i can record it. also i happened to hear another noise last night, i can only hear it when i have the wheel turned (e.g taking a slight corner or merging lanes) and i accelerate, sounds like somethings engaging again. any thoughts boys ? |
