cant hear it at idle...but really when hitting the gas more prevlelant when actually moving in the car than what the video shows as it stays on a lot longer when driving. oddly enough, the brakes are now squealing at low MPH. Brakes cant squeal going faster right? Is that a dumb question...is it possible the brakes are catching on the disc or something? It is not constant...I dont hear it when decelerating.
Also - the AOS was just replaced 300 miles ago along with the IMS bearing you all created! But I do recall hearing this noise prior to the IMS and the AOS getting replaced. My noise is on the driver side and the AOS is on the other side right?
It really seems like it is coming from either the wheel or the air intake best I can tell. The air intake is an EVOMS if that matters. No, I didnt put that in...the PO did.
Then again - on my first boxster I put the fabspeed exhaust on and was convinced a noise I was hearing was the belt when actually it was one of the mufflers rubbing the heat shield!
HELP!! I will drive myself nucking futs with this...not to mention my poor wife.
Anymore thoughts???
