Odd noise
« on: August 10, 2009, 01:50:35 PM »
 I'm having trouble finding the cause of an odd noise in my Tracker. When driving if I let off the gas right as the tach drops to around 2500rpm it makes a kind of whiney/rattle noise until it hits 2k. Then it stops. I'm not really sure what's causing it.

I recently got it back from the repair shop. I took it in to have it looked at because it was stalling out on me when coming to a stop while driving. My mechanic found the cause to be that the throttle body needed to be cleaned. He cleaned it and it's running fine now. Now the noise is slightly less prominent than before I brought it in but it's still there.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this or what I could check are appreciated.  :)
