Noises Your Car Makes

A good description of a noise your car is making can be elusive.

“How do I say it? Maybe I can make the noise myself, will they laugh when I make the noise?”

Twisted Wrench introduces our car noise audio clips and descriptions, a fun and easy way to describe your car’s noises. Now you can laugh at the noises we made! They should cover most of the sounds you would want to tell your service shop about. They will at least help get the conversation started and help you get closer to the solution to your car noise concerns. Give it a try, tell us what you think!
