Engine suddenly sounding ' Buzzy '

Does your Mitsubishi L300 make a strange noise? Need wheel alignment specs?

Engine suddenly sounding ' Buzzy '

Post by Super Mario »

Hi Deli guys :-) I have an unusual one for everybody, my engine this past week has a funny kind of Buzz sound, yeah yeah no i have not inherited a bee hive LOL but just a funny kind of buzzy or buzz sound going on, drives ok but just a slightly rough idle compared to its usual nice smooth idle, done the usual checking of everything that i can think off, so what does everybody think i should be checking.
Oh and its an. L300

Cheers. Mario

are you sure its the engine itself thats buzzing? If you are idling rougher it could be the gauge pod or a million other plastic bits vibrating. In the cold weather (real cold not vancouver cold) the van shakes so hard the rear hatch buzzes, the headrests shake and the windows flap. Yeah its cold up here. I am surprised I haven't lost bolts yet due to wicked vibration. so if its cool in vancouver, or something is running rough, you might get a bit of a buzz i would guess?

hope this helps!
