Default Strange noise

Hey, I have an annoying noise question and was wondering if someone could help. My car makes a strange squeak/whistle sound very briefly around 3000 RPM when i am at very partial throttle (about 1/4 throttle). The noise only happens for a second as the revs climb past 3000. The sound is mostly predominant in 3rd and 4th gears but can be hear i 2nd too. I was wondering if anyone heard anything like this or knows something I don't. Very random question but thatnks for the help in advance!

I believe I may have the same noise. see my thread here for a description https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...374301&hl=chirp

I have occationally heard the noise since posting that, but I have no idea what's making it.

my noise is definitely not intake resonance.

This is intake noise. it is completely normal.


vtec9, also probably intake noise.


in either case, i think you're hearing a noise that is not a sign of a problem or issue. this car makes a ton of noises that most cars don't. it's not going to blow up next time you mash the gas.

haha, you're damn right our cars make a million weird noises, it freaks me out. The noise doesn't really sound like resonance but it could be and I don't think it's a major problem. Thanks for the help and reply guys!

it's not like normal resonance. it literally sounds like a whistling.
