Ok so I am not surprised that my car doesnt sound the greatest at idle. I dont know if this is all celi's, but its enough to make me kind of sad that such a beautiful and well running car doesnt have that quiet graceful idle that most cars have.
Is there anything I should check? It doesnt sound like blets but it also sounds like its coming from that little thing that has the hand off symbol with the belt next to it (is that timing belt?) Any suggestions on gettin her to be a little more graceful at the idle? |
