Ok so WE have made the conclusion that the swishing noise comming from my front drivers side wheel/brake is not a warrped rotor. So WTF is it? Ide like to get an idea before i take it to the dealer because ive already been there a few times and "noting was wrong" even tho the engine light was fken on! Any ideas? Its just a medium loud swishing noise that you can hear when going under 15mph like in drive thrus or parking lots.
HELP!

 

What exactly is the "swishing" noise you're hearing? I've noticed one on mine for a while only when I upshift and engage the clutch...it's hard to describe but sometimes there's a small squeak associated with it. I guess you could say it sounds like a small rush of air but I think (somehow) "swish" describes it better. I can only get it to make the noise on my upshift and after the clutch is fully engaged, never when downshifting and I've tried both when rev matching and when not. Similar issue or is it something totally different?

 

It's the brakes, mine was doing it, New rotors and pads now go bye bye

 

Would that be something that my warrantee would cover? At least the rotors.

 

A few weeks back, I had the exact same type of noise. It turned out to be one of my hubcaps. I took the hubcaps off and reinstalled them, making sure they were nice and tight. That completely took care of the noise for me.

It's worth giving it a shot - it's an easy thing to check.

 

Warranty Doesn't Cover Wear and tear, More speciafically that was the sound the wear indicator was making when it was first starting to rub
