Weird noise on acceleration

[Jordan Arthur]

Anyone else ever hear a slight noise during acceleration when the car is first warming up? It sounds like its coming from the back of the engine bay of the car or right under the center console. Its a modest vibration type sound, not really a raddle but just like something is vibrating a bit in the back of the engine. It goes away sometimes and usually after the car is warmed. Can't hear it if radio is on but if completely silent u can. Little sounds like this just annoy me but it doesn't sound serious by any stretch. Any ideas?

Loose heat shield on the exhaust? I really don't know if there is any in the location you describe, just throwing it out there. Tap on the heat shields and see if any rattle.

Yeah, not sure but its a mild sound and something like a heatshield being loose makes since. Gonna monitor tho and see if it gets worse

lots of vehicles make extra noise when the engine is cold - the clearances are looser then than they are after things have warmed up, and can often cause "extra" noises during the warm-up phase. I would not worry about it.

It knows you can hear it. 1st rule of diagnostics. You try to pinpoint it, it goes away.
