Hi Nahoa,

I think you have hit the nail on the head with your explanation of my problem since day one. When sitting next to a wall it sounds like the motor is actually a diesel... makes me crazy. I brought it to the dealer but of course... no problem. I like the explanation of the direct injection but still not 100% convinced.

Have you brought yours into the dealer?

Thanks!
