Metal on Metal sound.

30 April 2012 - 04:24 PM

I was on the way home from school today, and i heard a sound. It sounded somewhat like metal on metal. I thought it was the exhaust scraping on the ground, and thats as similar as i can describe the sound. It was quite loud, and definately my car.

As to when the sound was happening, I was in stop/start traffic, and it happened only when i took off, so at slow speeds only, but kept happening when the clutch was fully out; so im thinking it isnt that.

I pulled up after a few minutes to see what it was, and couldnt see anything, no exhaust hanging, nothing different. When i got back in the car, it stopped. Didnt happen again the whole way home.

Has anyone experienced this? Should i be worried?

Don't know where to start really. Fuel economy is getting worse and worse. Last time I filled up I got 20L per 100k.

Whining On Acceleration - Ideas?

29 February 2012 - 09:37 PM

Howdy Subaru Blokes.

Okay, so its been a while, and lazy/busy me still has not done anything about it.

When accelerating, Medium - High revs (4k +) there is a whining noise.

At first, i thought it was a diff whine, but i think i have ruled that out as the noise stops as soon as you take your foot off the gas.

Then i thought it was something with the exhaust (cat or something), but again have pretty well ruled that out cause it stops when you arent accelerating.

It is A LOT more noticeable when the engine is cold.

Other than that, im clueless, and i am quite hesitant to take the car to a mechanic and say: "Yeah, umm, there is a noise that happens sometimes"


Any ideas?
