Default What does your engine sound like?

Hey guys!

So I have been noticing that my 1998 Volvo S70 GLT SE is a bit louder than other cars I have driven.

Yes this car is older but I just wanted to ask someone else if they have noticed that the sound of the engine humm is just a bit higher pitch and louder, to the point where it is noticeable by passengers of my car.

When I'm at 60 MPH, I'd say I am at about 2000 to 2500 RPM's if that, but it just sounds almost sounds like it's being a bit strange?

Am I just being too paranoid or is this something you have all noticed as well?

Thanks,

Max

The only noise I notice in our 98 GLT at highway speeds is sometimes the sunroof cover decides to rattle (have I mentioned how much I hate sunroofs?)...

Suggest you make a recording and post on utube, then post link here.
