Hi car lovers and experts. I love my cars running quite. I do my routine car servicing as at when due. But I noticed that recently, my engine noise has increased significantly. It no longer idles quietly as before. My mechanics think they don’t notice any difference. What do you think could be the factors of an engine noise increasing?
