What IS this “Squeak, squeak… squeaky-squeak” sound I am hearing in a handful of cars? There’s several of them that do this; I’m hearing it now in the MG MGA Twin-cam and just off the top of my head I know the Hoonigan Escort RS1800, and I know there’s a few more I’ve heard it in. Is the sound engine-related or coming from another upgraded part of the car?
I can’t be just imagining it, and it’s maddening… drives me crazy when I hear it; very distracting!
Are the cars tuned? I don’t remember bad stock sound.
Tell me about it. My already broken Elite 2 added new sound while drifting from right trigger. It’s so annoying but I don’t have time/mood for warranty replace.
ok, we had a good laugh about it, but on more serious note…
Squryl - do this sound occure only in turboed cars when you release the throttle?
I tried MG and only “squeaky” noise was blow-off valve mounted on stock engine. Spool sound was IMO strange too, but only thing I would refer as “squeak” was BOV.
Any other configuration was sounding normal.
As funny as it may seem, I was being a little bit serious. It’s entirely possible that Squryl could be hearing a squeak in real life, and mistaking it for a sound effect. Some of you guys know cars waaaay better than I do, so I could be wrong. But I’m not aware of any in-game sound effects that squeak.
BOV - blow-off valve. When you let off gas turbo is still pumping and this valve allows to release accumulated air.
Personally, in real life I prefer to run without BOV. Flutter for the win <3
