Hi,
I've just upgraded my 2002 Mk1 Jazz to a 2009 Mk2 EX model which I'm generally very happy with.
Just wondered whether the noise I'm hearing from the engine is normal/characteristic so would be grateful for any advice.
When accelerating moderately (engine under light to medium load) whilst already moving I hear a noise around 1900rpm in 2nd, 3rd and 4th which last until around 2300 rpm and then disappears (only lasts a few seconds but annoying nonetheless). Please note that I'm not overloading the engine in too high a gear.
I wondered whether it might be a slightly loose heat shield or similar in the engine bay, or maybe a slight leak from exhaust manifold? Maybe it's just a characteristic that I'll have to get used to.
Thanks very much for your thoughts.
