My car howls between 1000-1500 rpm

[PANDA]

Happens on very light TPS and sometimes when I am not on the gas at all and car is decelerating. Happens most of the time between 1000-1500rpm and sounds like it is coming from the intake/tb side.

wat is dis?

Upper intake could be warped by the throttle body. Thats how mine was.

Sounds like the diff is howling ya? Could also be a wheel bearing, but I doubt it.

howling or more of a hooting?

 

[PANDA]

howling for a split second.

pull the intake and spray some cleaner down the iac passage while reving it.

probably just a ridge of carbon buildup on the iac pintle

 

[PANDA]

can I just remove the IAC and clean it?

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

yeah but i figured ya for lazy...
yeah just clean the pintle and the mating seat

I couldn't help myself. I'm going some sort of vac related issue. Leaking gasket or dirty TB blade even

thats true your more likely to get a high vacuum in the manifold that will be able to suck any carbon coking off the iac pintle
