temp sits in the middle so it's normal, aah most of the time the sound starts to make it on 2nd gear, its a I6, 200,000 on the clock n ive got another 7,000 till next service, it's very annoying HELP!

Cheers...

No he means he has 200,000 on the odometer and he has 7000ks until the next service.

Try giving as much info as possible on what you dont understand he is saying...like "third word on second line".

:lol:

Ok I'll describe something I hear with my car and see if it's similar.
When I've got the foot on accelerator and I set the cruise control, the engine makes this harmonic hum as it revs up to the set speed, usually 1 or to 2kph more than my current speed.
Almost like induction noise that is suddenly amplified as soon as I hit the cruise set button. It goes away as soon as the cruise control gets up to the set speed.
I'm thinking is could be induction roar, worn torque convertor, or worn uni-joints.
Is that what you get, and does anyone else know what that could be?
