    Hey, just noticed another strange noise in my car... yay!

    At high rpm in 2nd i noticed a noise.... that kinda sounds like if u got a rip tie and ran ur nail down it really quick...

    Clutch goes in and the noise drops with the rpm...

    Keeping in mine i had a new HD clutch n rigid flywheel put in just the other week.

    Any ideas?? im starting to run out...

    N it only started today, before that it would go all the way to red like without this noise....

    Funnily enough, there also sounds like there is a quick rattling noise that sounds like its from the driver A-pillar at high rpm aswell.

    I got noises all over the shop... lol

    ANy input would be usefull

    an old thread but my vx whined before i got my hd clutch kit in, and it still does now...especially if aircon is on...its twice as loud easily.

    my car makes a wierd rattly noise at high revs, sounds like gear box area or drivers footwell...

    not complaining about (turbo lol) whine, just the rattle worries me.

    my vp had a high pitch sound at high rpm, it was low gear box oil, almost sounded like a turbo spooling up, turned heads :)
