Question Odd noise comming from the front end.

I noticed when i first took the car over 110 that there's this noise comming from the wheel well i wanna say, but it sounds like a bunch of small rocks hitting my wheel well every single time. and the faster i go the louder it gets...??? Like if there was something loose underneath there or something. What could it be???

tell them you were doing 110. adn they'll laugh at you. "yea it only happens when i'm driving 110". they'll be like SURE, WE'LL TAKE IT TO 110 AND DIAGNOSE UR PROBLEM' lol

when i was at the dealer, a guy said the same thing, he had a ridgline and said i wobbles when going 90-100 mph. the advisor laughed at him saying, "yea, we're really going to take it that fast"

the fastest that i've gone so far is 133 and that was in 5th...6th makes it go slower...i dunno if that happens to anyone else or not. Yet i've heard of people topping out at 145....


yea i kno im not going to the dealership and tell them to take it 110 and listen...duh....fuzznuts...that would never happen....

but i guess thats just some loose plastic underneath the car when i added my intake i never put back some of the plastic nuts...ill firgure it out....

you know what it was now that i think of it.....if you forgot to replace some of the plastic nuts.....part of your splash guard was probably rubbing your tire treads at high speed. I bet anything your plastic is a little chewed up when you look under there.....keep us updated
