I have noticed a sort of ringing metallic sound emanating from my engine compartment. I can feel it in the foot well over by the kick panel in the driver's side. It only seems to happen when the car is at idle in gear in drive or 2nd. I think the column linkage is hitting the manifold. It's loud, it's almost as loud as the car is, and my car is loud. The linkage, specifically the part coming from the column down the firewall to the bit under the car. I can move it about 2 inches left to right. Is there a way to shim it up top or something? There looks to be two bushings on either side of it, but I couldn't get a clear look.
It's not rod knock sounding. It sounds like someone hitting a Triangle instrument to the lope of the engine, or if you can imagine hanging a metal pipe from a string and hitting it with a wrench. it's hard to describe.
