7MGTE water noise Mon, 23 February 2004 07:14 Go to previous message
I was just wondering if anyone else with a 7M series engine had noticed a noise that I can only describe as a water feature. It sounds exactly like one of those little fountains you can buy for your living room. It's supposed to relax you, but in this case it just makes me nervous Confused

I think it makes the noise constantly (while the engine is running), but it's fairly quiet - so I can only really hear it at idle.

The reason it makes me nervous is that I am familiar with the 7MGTE's appetite for head gasgets, and it sounds to me like a bubble in the coolant system. From inside the cabin, it sounds VERY close to the firewall - my guess would be around 5th or 6th cylinder.

Does anyone else get this noise and is it normal? Is there any way to shut it up!?
