grinding noise from the front

[jquick]

i have a cvt and there is a loud grinding noise you can only hear in the cabin and only when i accelerate around to around 20km then it either goes away or my intake covers the noise (aem) i tightened everything i could find but it still makes the noise the best way i could describe it is it sounds like something is either turning or shaking and something else is being hit or grinded by it it only sounds when the car is being accelerated ONLY i tried revving and i tried coasting and rolling at 20km and it doesnt make the sound sometimes when i turn its really bad and sometimes when i turn it doesnt make a diff please help any way possible

you have the intake! me too but is it at or around 2,000 RPM and holding the gas and staying at 2k rpm because i have a little bit of the same noise your talking about. its not all that loud but it kind of vibrates the pedal a little bit. but once i get above or below 2k the noise goes away im just wondering because i didnt know if anyone with the intake had the same noise

BTW you can aim me at : Bubbadan07

ok i have solved the problem it seems one of the plastic tubes that allow air flow finto the engine from the intake was rubbing against the strutbar when the engine accelerated this was temporarily solved by i cleverly folded wad of everyday scott towels finest paper towel but i hope to get a rubber tube to officially take its place this week
