220k miles. Ive been trying to figure out what it is for a while now. I only hear it when in gear and accelerating. It is immediate when I press the throttle down. Immediately stops when I let off. It's around 2-3.5k+ rpm in every gear. Is this something I should keep worrying about or ignore it? To my knowledge it's not affecting anything.
Title. Had to use a dremel to get the old ones (pictured) out. Shifter feels decent now instead of super sloppy.
Obviously I don't have a supercharger on the 1zz-fe engine. When I accelerate though (doesn't happen in neutral) I hear a super charger like whine from the front of the car. Only in gear. Only at speed. Most noticeable around 3-5k rpm. From what I can tell it's most likely an exhaust manifold leak or something with the transmission. 220k miles 2008 xr. I'm wondering if anyone has had the same problem.
I read I should probably replace them so I went to look and sure enough they're warped to hell and corroded into place. How am I supposed to get these out? Pb blaster and a dream?
Hey, new to this reddit and fairly kinda new to car stuff (aside from oil change and the like). I'm trying to get my 220000 mile matrix into shape and to make it a little nicer to drive. What are some things you guys did to your matrix that you would recommend? I'm due for a fluid flush but past that I'm not sure what to do.
