Hissing sound when accelerating. Need help, thank you
Hey Guys,
I have a 2014 non z 51 AUTO. Lately Ive noticed when Im accelerating (stepping on my gas pedal) lightly and slowly, theres this hissing sound (it sounds like my turbo[which i dont have] turned on or something) coming from what I believe to be the pipe of my exhaust for a split sec then when I firmly press the gas pedal, it goes back to normal. is this normal?
The thing is, i can actually ride this hissing sound for a longer time if I just keep my right foot lightly down on the pedal, the hissing will continue until I press more firmly on the pedal... It doesnt happen all the time. Maybe my acceleration timely is bad when the RPM dropping?.
Im paranoid because the dealer recently dropped my tank to replace my fuel sending unit. Im thinking maybe they didnt put exhaust back correctly. There is no check engine light but i really dont recall having this sound when I first bought the car.
Any suggestions? Thank you in advance....

Had u ever encountered fuel gauge malfunctioning ? I did, so I believe when they dropped my tank any put everything back together they must have not done a very good job.

My whole dash cluster stopped functioning briefly on a couple of occasions, but a reflash of that system corrected the problem.

And they wonder why it's sometimes called the same thing as a woman's anatomy.
And yes his was a joke and so was mine.
Hissing under hood.Missing cat. Get it yet.
