Ok, so yesterday i goto start my car, and its making a REALLY weird sound. I cant really take a sound clip or anything, but it sounds like something broke and is now settling somewhere. Whenever i try and rev it makes a sound as if the engine is gargling metal? Its coming from the back close to the firewall, and it wasnt anything i can eye down. I just dont know what to do. Ive lost a bit of power, which is rediculous cuz my ST is already slow as....so i feel like an old lady. If anyone has any suggestions let me know. Its a consistent sound, it just gets louder when i rev higher.
