I recently purchased a used 2023 Wrangler Rubicon 2.0L turbo and noticed a continuous “da da da da” sound when accelerating. It seems to be coming from somewhere near the pedal. Is this normal? No sound at all when the peal is released. Any one experienced the same?

Just because it had to be done. Does it sound like this?





but kidding aside, if you post a video of the sound that may help people diagnose.

Post a video or sound clip. Otherwise expect wild ass guesses.

And just because I’m the victim of forced piano lessons as a child. The opening measures of Beethoven‘s Symphony Number 5 in C minor

I think that we're all showing what generation we are in based on which video we thought of first. 🤣
Well I revised my answer to the first measures of Beethoven’s Symphony Number 5 which means I’m older than dirt and still recovering emotionally from forced classical piano lessons.

"Do run run" came to my mind.

I hear a ticking noise. Bad gas or low octane? Is a 2.0 supposed to use 91 octane?

The gas is from the dealership, haven’t fill it myself yet.

Questioning gas quality is always a safe bet when you don't know. Mine had been sitting for a while when purchased (many priced too high on the lot and they they dropped over a few months). The dealer topped off with who knows what grade. No issues per say, but I babied it for a 2/3 tank and filled up with top tier Shell 93. Ran it down to 2/3 and did it again. Ethanol in the gas should take care of moisture except in more extreme cases, so didn't use any dry gas.
