    knocking sound from dash

    91 318is, S52 swap, OBDI

    Ever since I figured out my MAF was bad and left it unplugged (getting new one this week) I have been getting a knocking sound coming from my dash about 70% of the time I drive. It has been getting more intense lately.

    I have figured out that i can physically feel the knock very lightly only when I put my hand down near the gas pedal and to the right when touching the plastic from the dash/center console near the floor.

    Frequency of the knock fluctuates with revs. Around 1600 rpms and above is when it begins and gets louder and more frequent when going any higher.

    I do not believe it has anything to do with my suspension. It seems to be coming from my lower dash area. Any ideas? I haven't delved too much into it yet...just thought I would as the internet first.

    Farbins knocking dash noise ended up being Rats of all things...


    I do not know what it could be if it is related to rev's, maybe other than something to do with your trans/clutch? ? ?

      Are you serious about the rats!? :rofl:

      Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

        The funny thing was, I didn't have a knock until after I removed the entire powertrain, electrical system. ;)

          I heard a weird knocking/vibration in my car today.

          It's my shitty CD player that's almost dead.
