fluttering noise-99 4runner
hey guys-im new to the board but hope someone might be having the same problem as i. here goes--my rig has developed afluttering sound which seems to come from the left side of my motor-truck also is louder upon acceleration i checked the exhaust and it seems ok--no VISIBLE leaks. i have owned 3 other 4 runners and never heard this before! i was told they all sound like that!!--YEAH RIGHT!! any body have any ideas?

You say developed, so I figure this isnt something that has always been there. Any loss of power associated with the sound? Any recent check engine lights? Any recent work done on the vehicle?

it seems like an exhaust leak. but since u dont see any visible leaks i cant honestly say what it is. i would say maybe u could try replacing the gaskets on the exhaust manifolds.
i had a fluttering noise after i installed my headers and i found that i blew the gasket, so i replaced it and the sound went away.
