First of all, I've had my car 3.5 weeks. I noticed this sound coming from the front driver side at about 300kms and it has gotten progressively worse. I am now at about 1200kms and it's louder than before.
The best i can describe the sound is a slow, faint
"glug-glug-glug..." like something is loose.
it happens most obviously when:
1)1st year, gas, clutch *now*, second
2)2nd gear, gas, clutch *now*, third.
so basically it's most pronounced when the clutch is depressed, but when i pay attention i can hear that it doesn't stop even when the clutch is engaged and i'm on the gas... just that the engine noise drowns it out.
THIS is when i get it the loudest -- when clutching in turns.
I'm at at a stop sign completely still, go into first, gas, and as I turn right (left too), clutch, and shift into second.... during the turn/clutch process its just way too obvious to miss the clunk/glug.
If there is a meet coming up let me know. i'll let you guys drive it and see.
please help.
p.s. the tech at the dealership drove it with me in the car and claimed he 'didn't hear it' yesterday
