Chriss Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Well I have the Supra a day and can not drive it as I am sorting out tax and insurance so have parked it up in work, when the car has been on and is turned off there is a sort of dripping noise, I thought it might be an oil leak but I could not see any on the ground, I have taken a look at other posters threads on noises and cant find any like mine, I will have time on the weekend to take the under tray off and look for leaks but anyone any ideas? Also do non turbo engines all sound like this at idle? Thanks. The noise can be heard towards the end of this video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 The under tray should confirm if there's a leak, but I doubt it's that. Isn't it just the noise of the catalytic converters heating up and cooling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 That doesn't sound like a drip to me, its going to probably be the exhaust heat shield cooling ticking away. Its a common enough noise particularly when the shields and system are old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 Those answers are reassuring, the car has been sitting up for at least 2 months at a car dealers, as said I will know more when I get the under tray off. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
