Weird noise...

[speciosusnex]

How do you know your CV joints are bad or going out? Or maybe its a wheel bearing...I dont know...But I do know that when I take off in first gear (nothing crazy), just a normal take off. I hear this like waaawaaa sound. Happens more when I am turning while taking off, and a little less when the wheels are straight. Doesn't sound friendly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Wrong area but let someone else worry about it. Have you done any suspensions modifications in the front, coilovers or springs. If not, is the car still under warranty?

Corksports springs

Without hearing the noise, could it be the springs twisting in the pockets? I have BC coilovers and the springs WERE sitting on some POS paper bushings, I upgraded these to some roller (thrust) bearings.

I hear a similar noise (I think). Sounds like a really faint supercharger whine, gets faster as I accelerate and really fast when I step on the clutch to shift from 1st to 2nd, then slows down when 2nd is engaged.

I think mine is coming from the flywheel, probably normal.

Mine really only happens when I start to take off. Like 1-5 mph...
