sounds on cold start?
Hey guys, my car makes a couple of odd noises every cold start. video attached so you can hear exactly what I mean.
Exhaust: Installed an aftermarket borla exhaust I bought off Facebook Marketplace, but I can’t match it to anything on Borla’s actual website, so not sure what it really is. Ran fine for the first few weeks, but now it makes noise only on cold start. The exhaust is two pieces bolted together, so maybe something there was loose? It was tricky trying to bolt them all up evenly when i installed it. Planning to retighten everything, but wanted to see if that sounds like the right call or if I’m missing something.
Front-end squeak: Also cold-start only, comes from the front of the car. Already ruled out idler pulley, bearing, tensioner, and both belts (all replaced recently), squeak is still there. You can also here this in the video. Goes away after a few minutes.
Any input on either issue is appreciated, happy to answer questions.
