I just took delivery of a 2008 GT (auto trans) on Saturday. I recently hit 200 miles on the odo. However, I've been noticing this slight fluttering or ticking noise along with a fairly audible howl when I accelerate mildly from either a dead stop or a roll on the highway. Being that the car is new, I haven't pushed it past 4k rpm yet. I was just wondering, is this normal or is something wrong? I dont seem to remember the noise at all on my 06 GT (also auto trans). Any help is greatly appreciated..

Thanks!

 

Take it back to the dealer, and have them check it out. If possible, take them for a drive in another 08 auto GT on the lot, and see if has the same sound.
