Hey, I'm hearing a weird sound on my 2007 2.3L sprt - its happens right around where our rev's hangg in the tq peak - right below 3000rpms the sound is always there when you punch it.

It sounds like cylinders knocking but its only there when you give it a little gas.

The sound speeds up as the rev's climb and sounds like a knock (like a small diesel almost)

Thats the best way I can describe it I hope its nothing serious - Seems to me the post previous to mine about his mazda3 sounding like a diesel could be experiencing what I am only more severe because hes feeling it at idle.

Any help is appreciated. thx

Any chance you can get a sound clip or video with sound of the engine bay and post it up on here? That would be the most helpful and there are some Mazda techs on this site also.
