Hey all, I bought my RC F new about a month ago and have put a very fun 1450 miles on it. Ever since I got it, there is this weird noise happening right at about 2.8k - 3k rpms. It doesn't seem to happen when I'm hammering on it as much as when I just accelerate on the road to get around somebody and peak at those rpms.

Not quite sure how to explain the noise, it's kind of a high pitched gurgling. Is this normal? Has anyone else heard this on a day to day basis?

I tried recording it but you can't hear it through the video at all. If you turn the volume up and put your ear right next to the speaker you *might* be able to hear it. It's much more apparent in real life.

I hear a gurgling sound when I first drive off with the engine cold. Happens once and then it is gone.

Mine tends to be more apparent with the engine cold, but it lasts until the engine is more than warmed up.

Pretty sure mine does that too. I'll pay more attention tomorrow morning.

Yep, mine makes the noise when cold. I'm not worried about it.

Yup, mine makes the same noise all the time. I took it to the dealer and I too a mechanic on a test drive with me. He was able to hear the noise and I was later told it was "normal". However, I think that response is BS.

Well, at least it's consistent across all of our RC Fs. I guess it could just be normal? I'm going to pay for an early oil change in a week or so and I'll show the mechanic during this apt.

I'll keep y'all posted.
