#39125, "Simple questions..."




          

1. During the cold weather my idle seems to be around 1200 then drops to around 900 when it's warm. Do you guys idle this as well? I have a stock motor with 65XXX.

2. Can you guys hear your motor working while you're inside the car? Whenever I have the music off and windows up while I'm at a stoplight I can really hear the engine. Is this an Eclipse thing? Whenever I'm in my friend's Grand Prix I don't hear his engine.

Yes, idle sounds normal.

What kind of sounds do you hear? Yes I can hear my engine... even the sounds I don't want to hear emoji

One who displays himself does not shine.
One who justifies himself has no glory.
One who boasts of his own ability has no merit.
One who parades his own success will not endure.

that's the second thing I don't like about our cars - we have the loudest 4 cylinder engine. 1st thing I don't like is the stock wheel gap

I think that it is more that we have 0 sound deadening. yeah it bugs me, and someday I plan on doing something about it.
personally I like the sound of our engines.... but from OUTSIDE of the car not inside.
