Noisy GLK?!

I was wondering if anyone else had an issue with the noise of the car. I bought a used 2010 GLK-350. When i first got it in September the car was sooooo quiet. When you sat inside you couldn't realize the engine was on. As of 3 days ago its sooo loud. I can hear it from inside.

Has anyone had this issue? How did you resolve it? Does anyone NOT have this issue?! I dunno if I should panic or not. I haven't had good car luck EVER.

Without actually hearing the sound it could be anything to nothing.
Take it to the dealer assuming you are still under warranty.

Nothing to be panic-ed over.

Just to be safe, check the oil to make sure you aren't too low or too high.

Thanks for the responses I'm going to get the car checked out. Its very hard for me to believe the loudness of this car is normal especially after I just bought it months ago and it was quiet. Thanks again.

Shywade, did you ever find out what was wrong? I'm having the same problem. Just yesterday my ac was no longer blowing air cold and I noticed the cooling fan is extremely loud.

Loud muffler? or Loud engine under hard acceleration? or Loud interior rattles?
