VIDEO0005 - YouTube

Sorry video not in the best quality, moving camera around to check where it's coming from. It happened 2 days ago and now I'm unable to produce the issue. It really sounds like it's coming from one of the pulleys from the passenger side. Engine's not pulling any codes/bogging etc, car runs like normal and all the logs are fine. But it's bugging me.

I found another video of a VW but not as loud engine noise - YouTube

Thoughts would be much appreciated

It doesn't sound like an exhaust leak, but hard to be sure with the poor sound quality.
I'd inspect the serpentine belt and look for a small "flap" or other defect.

It's the air compressor you have on in your garage...


In all honesty, I'm not gonna guess... It sounds TERRIBLE... Dealershit and/or don't drive it
Did the problem happen right when you turned it on? Or while you were driving? Did you do anything out of the ordinary in the past few days?

I've connected the oil cooler in the past few days, oil level is good (Motul 300v 5w30), the noise is on and off, not sure if I can duplicate it anytime I want, and seems to disappear when driving...

Sounds like a pressure washer. Not a 370z!
