[@michaeljwilson125]

I used to resolve NVH issues as a former exhaust system engineer. After seeing a few of the videos with the Diablo, I'm convinced the issue is a mechanical resonance issue and not acoustic. I doubt microphones will be able to locate the problem. You will need to place some accelerometers in the suspect areas and feed those inputs into some kind of data collector to find what area/component is resonating. Perhaps the cheap way to work this process is try putting some weights in the suspect areas to see if it changes as mass will affect the resonant frequency. So give up on the microphones, they won't help!

[@nhojyelbom]

[@georgeanddaddecker7563]

Is that why some exhausts have weights welded onto them? To prevent resonance noises?

[@NickKautz]

The Diablo noise is the air bypass release if it's coming from the passenger engine area. There's also an air balance system that connects both throttle bodies.

[@josephfranzen5626]

In terms of microphones an Omni-mic isn’t going to be able to directly locate any sort of sound. These mics in particular are of very low quality and I’m sure the accompanying calibration file isn’t that great either. While I’m very much an amateur car enthusiast I am a professional home cinema installer and calibrator. That being said using those styles of microphones to pinpoint sound pressure level output isn’t that feasible unless you can specify the frequency range you’re searching for as those omnidirectional microphones will pick up all sound in the relative area of their placement. For reference we use $3500 microphones to measure speaker and subwoofer performance in a semi anechoic manner and even at that price range they’re considered mid range.

[@michaeljwilson125]

@@georgeanddaddecker7563 Yes (weird, huh). Placing "mass dampers" on some suspension and drivetrain components is pretty common, too. I wonder if the Diablo is experiencing some engine mount resonance that's being transmitted to the frame/body.

[@WaterfrontJustin]

Hey, Long shot because its wildly different but I had my hemi replaced in my truck and got a drone and it took hundreds of hours and several different shops but it turned out to be a pad between the intake manifold and the engine valley that was missing and that pad dampened the engine harmonics and stopped them from resonating in the intake manifold maybe your problem is as simple as a missing sound deadening pad or a missing heat shield. Worth a look

[@JSAFIXIT]

That pad is commonly removed due to a water saturation issue that becomes catastrophic failure after the intake manifold leaks. I've seen a few 5.7 hemis hydrolock because of it. It usually presents itself as a hole in the block on the passenger side.

[@SteebMo]

I work in Automotive NVH, so here's something to consider about the Lambo noise: I see some people mentioning oil thermostats and fuel pumps, which absolutely could make a noise like this. What might make it WAY more audible from inside the vehicle cabin is if the vibration is on one of those lines that's touching the body of the vehicle @9:50. It can wind up turning that body panel into a 'speaker' for the noise. (think about how much more noise your phone makes when vibrating on a table vs holding in your hand) This would make the noise clear as day INSIDE the cabin, but might be very difficult to hear from the engine bay. If possible, it might be a good diagnostic step to try and prevent each of those lines from making contact with the body, or at least grabbing each one firmly by hand to try and damp the vibration/narrow things down.

[@martij30]

It wouldn't make sense that it takes a while before the noise appears though. Sure some lines will get warm, but not hot enough to only expand by that point.

[@miguelcoelho9303]

@@martij30 Maybe the lines only help to transfer a vibration that happens when some specific component gets hot.

[@cunningstunt9226]

Interesting theory you have there, this would indeed causes a similar noise however as this is happening at a certain rpm even when this car is stationary this seems unlikely. If I had to make a guess I would say something on the intake side of things is not aligned quite correctly and at a certain pressure is acting as a reed. Failing this potentially the return line to the fuel tank is vibrating at a certain flow rate (think like pipe knock on badly fitted central heating)… A potential diagnosis step may be to check roughly what rpm this happens at and then guesstimate the frequency of the sound… if it happens at 3000rpm and it’s a 3000hz drone it’s something rotating.. but overall just let em get on with it, they have more experience than we do with this machine (I’m not just an armchair mechanic, I work for chevron in the uk and work rebuilding b8 and b17 engines)

That recall has nothing to do with a fire though, its for a potential brake fluid leak in the reservoir. Means he'll randomly lose breaks. Far more dangerous then it catching on fire though, because you can at least stop and get out if it does. Can't stop too well without brake fluid though.

Great idea with the mics but would it not have been better to watch a plot of frequency spectrum? This sounds like a resonate pitch at a specific frequency.

One thing that may help you a lot is to find some sort of program that can do a Fourier Transform on the audio signal, likely an FFT.

What that would mean is the dominant contributor to volume in your mics would be that noise. It should be way way easier to narrow it down, blocking out most of the regular noise.

The microphone that shows the highest amplitude at the frequency where the moan occurs lies closest to the source. Then, you can zoom in on that area and do the test again to get even closer to the source.

That howl at specific RPM's usually denotes a rotating assembly not airflow. Most of the time its an issue with the transmission. I'm no pro but Ive had that problem. If it sounds like a supercharger and you don't have one.... well... transmission.

The 458 is by far one of the nicest Ferrari’s ever made

[@hakeemsd70m]

Agreed, and the 458 is easily the greatest mid-engine V8 Ferrari of all time.

We used to use the old style single post car lifts as a press ,to bend things like that straight. You could be very precise modulating the air lever on those.

My favorite thing is when Hoovie taps on a hood of a car. I laugh every time, he’s so excited to possibly buy another car.

I find it rude and annoying.

Why not simply machine a new bar, assuming a couple thousand isn't a show stopper?

I thought by law manufacturers are supposed to keep parts available for at least 10 or 15 years.

[@JackTheripper911]

Why the hell did you believe that utter nonsense?

@@JackTheripper911 because I was working at a Suzuki dealership in Canada. When Suzuki decided to pull out of Canada, the dealership became a Mitsubishi dealership. But we were told by Suzuki that we have to be able to maintain a supply of parts for at least 10 years

Honest question. Why hammer? Why not use a hydraulic press? Seems like a better way to control pressure distribution and total affect.

[@thedirtlifesupreame]

Instead of using a sledge hammer, use a hydraulic press.

[@montestu5502]

He would get fewer comments then….

[@sylvainsauvage8301]

About the Lambo, if you recorded the noise you could check the frequency to know the source: - same RPM as engine = Crankshaft/pistons etc - 1/2 engine RPM = Camshaft - 1/4(?) = accesories (with pulley ratios) - etc.... Good luck!

[@honda4185]

Look at that stunning Sierra Cosworth 😍🥵

[@oldninjarider]

Doesn't the Wizard have a hydraulic press or a torch with a good rosebud tip? Yikes.

[@bradleycross5987]

that Ferrari almost sounds like an old F1 car. Excellent

[@peterhess6039]

The flat-plane crankshaft gives it that exotic sound

[@woocash2139]

news flash for the wizzard, aluminium can't be bent back and forth when cold, it cracks this way. Not a good idea. If you don't car about it cracking why not use a press instead of the hammer, it will give you more control

[@SomeJuanPlay]

The best part about this Ferrari is that you can drive the hell out of it

[@JackTheripper911]

Until i breaks down 50 feet down the road lol

[@dd-oq7jm]

What a hack job, the bar should be straightened on a press and the mounting tabs can be put back into position using a portapower.
