\'Chuffing\' sound from engine compartment
Not a good week for the SVT. Drove to work with no problems. After work I started up the car and let it idle for about one minute and drove off. Less than a mile later I hear this regular 'chuffing' pumping noise. Real regular and consistent and not dependant on engine RPM. The sound was the same speed at idle and while revving. I popped the hood and it sounded like it was coming from the drivers’ side between the wheel and the motor.
Last week it was in the shop for a rattling noise that needed two trips to correct. I was told that a bracket at the rear of the engine block was cracked and needed to be replaced. This new noise appears to be coming from that same location. Anyone know what is really down there?
