At times the engine often runs at wide open throttle, but at a reduced speed. This sound is uncharacteristic of a four-cylinder engine in a traditional sedan, but is a characteristic of an extended range electric vehicle such as the Chevrolet Volt. Technician will be able to inspect for abnormal induction ground-out conditions. These locations should be checked lower rubber isolator on air box not installed correctly or missing, upper induction resonator cover not installed properly, refrigerant line not bolted to engine support bracket, and throttle body contacting coolant pipes behind it.
