"jingling" from the engine bay?

mellowbob · 04-04-2007, 06:17 PM

I'm getting a jingling sound from the engine when I push in hard past vtec. It only happens then. I checked the engine bay for loose items and I tapped on the oil stick. To my surprise the stick made that rattling sound so I'm pretty sure it's the oil stick. Anyone else have that problem?

Hmmm, i'm definately going to have to check this as i'm having the same problem. Thanks.

When I push it up into Vtec range (which I don't do alot), and shift at 7k RPM or so, it's very audible. You can hear it over the engine noise, but it become VERY audible if you push it up to about 7.5k RPM and then put the cluth in and let it go back to idle, since that removes the engine noise itself, and you're left with the rattling.

I am getting something similar when going past 6K and am going to mention it the next time I am at the dealership. Mine is more of a rattling/vibrating kind of a "jingling". I've got 2300 miles on my Si.
