kel_zhang Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 During the summer season, every time when I start my 2004 IS300, there is a weird loud sound comes out from engine. Then, everything is fine. Do you think it is normal?
steviej Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 a few more details would be helpful. Is it a whirr, a bang, clang, ping, backfire, etc. Is it only when the car is started cold, warm, morning, first in the day, or everytime? Being summertime, is the AC on when you start the car? Next time you have time and when the car would usually have made the sound, open the hood and have someone else start the car. Stand in front of the car and see if you can't pinpoint from where the sound eminates and what exactly it sounds like. steviej
