thundering noise when pressing accelerator
Hi,
I have 2001 i30 with about 70k miles and all the services done regularly. Since yesterday evening whenever i press accelerator car make very big thundering noise and when i take my feet off the accelerator the sound goes away and this is irrespective of whether i hit the accelerator at 20mph or 70mph. There is no check engine light and RPM looks normal while driving, What can be the possible issue for this noise? Thanks --rubs |

Re: thundering noise when pressing accelerator
Exhaust manifold /pipe seal(s) leaking and/or support broken (pipe touches chassis).
"...feet off the accelerator the sound goes away" - pressure is up while accel, drops to minimum at idle. Sound=airpressurepulse. - engine angle changes and piping bends/moves, causing loosened/broken joint(s)s to pry open Do crawl around to pinpoint, see/hear/feelbyhand the leak while smbdy exercises the gas pedal |
