Do you notice it change when you rev the engine? Does it do it when cold, change when hot? I know you're thinking probably a bearing, but noises travel through an engine. Really hard to tell without using a stethoscope to try to pinpoint the origin. Bad serpentine belts have been known to...

I'm assuming you're talking about that knocking noise, which could be anything, also assuming you think it never did that before?

What's the mileage on the vehicle? What kind of oil are you using?

I've gone 40k miles on these filters, mainly because I've forgotten to change them. But if you look at the hardware after the filter you'll see that it stays very clean. The OEM filter is one of the best you can get for these vehicles. If you're in doubt about it, hold it up to the sun, if you...

I usually go through the comments section before I see the video. Tells all.

From a repair garage perspective https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FclNWQPR4bA

Sounds like the impact gun was set too high. Happened to me a few years ago with my mini van. Got it back from the shop and a lug nut fell off with the stud in it. I always check the torque when I get it back from the shop. More often than not they're where I like them, around 85, but every once...

Lol, I share the sentiment. I'd really push for that master tech to do the work

Are running proper cold tire inflation pressures?

Yep, in my experience that "multi-point inspection" is usually a lot of nonsense, even some CPO vehicles don't get good enough scrutiny.

Just picked up a set of these. Mavis Tire priced matched BJs who had them on sale. Got them mounted, balanced, new stems for under $600. Very pleased with them. https://www.goodyear.com/en_US/tires/edge-touring-as/24788.html

I'd go a little heavier on the AWG https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/ground-straps https://www.onallcylinders.com/2019/07/24/how-to-diagnose-electrical-ground-issues/

you mean milliamps, don't you?

Does it sound like a constant dog whistle kind of noise? https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/new-transmission-at-32k-miles.123848265/#post-6391694

I work with a guy who races dirt tracks. He said they use this "mod". He knew what it was right away

I'm guessing, if this works, that maybe the ground is siphoning off the electronic noise from the engine management system, allowing better data flow between electronic modules making things more efficient? I dunno. Also agreeing with HyFlyer. I'm told that the head, head gasket, and block acts...

I have used both and they're both great. Or a few tanks of Shell/Exxon/Mobile Super unleaded.

I'd put more money on the dealer screwing stuff up when they pulled the engine, hard to believe all that stuff went bad on its own within only a few years. You have to have a really conscientious tech to get all that stuff correct, something you don't see a lot of these days. .

"Modifying electrical Systems (Adding cell phones, alarms, stereo amps)"... that's an interesting one. I Imagine that interferes with the ECU in some manner? I'm glad to see they took the design thinking past 100k miles.
