This sound is driving me nuts.

I took a video of the gurgling sound that the Mechanic’s day is normal. Every time a new person gets in the car they ask what is that noise. I always said I was told it was normal. I decided to take a video once and for all to see if you guys and gals think it’s a normal sound. Not the turbo whine. Listen for the gurgling noise. Can’t hear it outside the car. Only inside under acceleration. If it’s normal then fine but I need to know.

How are your motor mounts?? I have had 2 customers come in with this and both cars have collapsed motor mounts.

The engine isn’t moving or vibrating excessively. Is their any way to check them?

you may actually be right. If I put my hand on the rear transmission tunnel I can “feel” the gurgling. I know their are 3 mounts total including transmission. Transmission being the easiest. Should I attempt the transmission one and wait or do all 3. Not even sure if it’s something I could do

I called my mechanic and was quoted about 500 parts and Labor for all 3 mounts

corteco mounts.

I would rather not spend the money on a hunch though.

very annoying, already changed the 2 engine mount, didnt change the gear mount yet, but want to make sure if you figure out what was this sound coming from!!

you only hear it inside the car coming from below the dashboard.
