What is this sound???! (video)
So lately I've been getting this sound occasionally in the low rpms (idle AND driving)... Sometimes it's just kind of a pulsing, and sometimes it kind of ticks... The frequency of the sound increases as the rpms increase...
I've noticed that sometimes when idling, the car kind of pulses (that's the best way I know to describe it) even if you can't hear a ticking...
Could this be a misfire/bad coil? What else could it be? I know my alternator is only running at about 70% capacity... could this cause a "pulsing" idle?
In the video, the ticking can be heard, but not so much the "pulsing idle"... just so you know...
