STI - Tapping sound
Hi , first post
Got a 2005 Sti . Standard
I have noticed when its fully hot and has been given some beans i can hear a sound which basically sound like a ton of stones in a tin can being shaken about . ( The sound is random and not in a pattern )
After turning the engine off it continues to do this untill cool.
Im assuming its some sort of heatshield or pipe ? Has any one else had this when hot and when turned off ?
WHen cold its fine ( or warm ) , and car also runs perfect
Many thanks
Luke

Exhausts and heatsheilds normally tick. They tick fast when hot, then the ticking gets slower as the part cools down. The ton of stones in a can being shaken about doesnt ring any bells to me.

Its not interfering with the performance of your car and you know what the noise is now ,so just live with it imho,as the other 90% of scooby owners do.If you were going to fit some ported headers then it would be worth having them heatwrapped while they are on the bench ,but otherwise just leave them.
