Hey guys,
I drive a jdm dc2r, just wondering when the car revs over 3000rpm it makes this "EEEEeeeEEEE" Noise not knowing what it is? My friends reckon its the intake, but im not quite sure if other jdm dc2r's make that noise. Can someone please let me know what it is.
Cheers
can u discript abit more detail about it ?
where is sound come from ?
does the sounds look like metal knocking or strectching each other ? or.....
u sure it was a EEEEEeee? not a OOOOoOoooo? or a AhHHhhH?
Trying to describe what something sounds like over the net is stupid.
Take your car to a mechanic, and take him/her for a spin so that the sound is produced.
That way they can hear wat it is and possibly fix it (if it is a problem).
if you have an aftermarket airfilter (pod filter), thats most likely where the sound is comming from. this happens with a couple of my mates cars too.
if its the air filter, probably be more of a PShhHHtTTttt sound.
yeah i know what it is ur talkin about...Quote:

my guess is, your headers or exhaust is leaking?
like others have said, it may be ur cai if u got one. as mine does that
by my guess its neither of the above.
an eeee noise is usually because you recently had a new headunit put into the car running with an amp OR with rcas somewhere.
with that, the rcas are too close to the ground or power cables.
IF you havent gotten an aftermarket head unit, then during the period of you owning your car, the electronics (possible ground) or the sound system has come very close or near a speaker wire or once again .. rcas
if none of the above is the cause then maybe you have a manifold leak :/ lol
but an eee sound isnt realli a mechanical fault sound.
well .. goodluck :D
If it sounds like a metalic noise and its jdm the car could be pinging

sweet sweet thanks...
yeah its like an Eeeeeeeee noise whistle lol i just sit there and whistle with it...
i get it too? happens on gear change or when u take the throttle off?
its more pronounced since i got a service done too. think coz they cleaned the air filter.
well if you have a pod in it its gonna whistle. nothings wrong with your car and yes its normal. mine does it alot and if it gets annoying thats what music is for.
the noise can only be heard from the inside of the car right?
If that noise you hear sounds similar to a spraying noise it might be a tiny air leak in the exhaust. The noise is probably coming somewhere near the headers. Usually when theres a leak on the axleback (at the end of your exchaust), the sound it would produce is a deep sound and when theres a leak near the header it makes a high pitch sound.
This probably happens when theres a build up of air pressure inside the exhaust and some of the air is released from a crack or the joints of the exhaust. The best thing to do is taking it out to a exhaust shop and they'll find what the problem is.
I have an Apexi airfilter, and my car makes the same noise.Quote:

and @D15z1SUX yeah only from inside the car.
if u can hear the whistle inside the car there should be noise outside the car too. happens to my mates dc2r too.Quote:

like poosh poosh (typing the sound out is quite gay).
when you step on the accelerator.
check your belts they could be slipping aswell, i had something very similar and it was the alternator and power steering belt
The famous Honda intake wistle...
not much can really be done unless u change the intake system...
Get a Mugan CAI :p Lol.. will cost a bit but will increase performance and get rid of the wistle...
I rather like the whistle.
lol
turbo for sure man! lol
Fo sho! HahaQuote:
