Title: Identify this buzz!
Post by: Patrick2691 on January 18, 2016, 07:17:31 pm

Hello again. Noticed when I rev the car in P or N when the revs drop I get this horrible buzz. From the video it seems louder when my phone is placed near the ground then above the engine bay. Any ideas? Exhaust?
Thanks.
