Scrapping metal sound at around 4,000 RPMs?

I can hear what sounds like a metal scrapping somewhere in the engine when I rev to around 4,000 RPMs or even while accelerating around there, not sure what it is or if any one else has experienced this. It's a vague description.

 

In gear or just reving the motor?

 

'Scraping', not 'scrapping'. Someone please change the title. It's setting off my OCD. If your motor were scrapping, it would either be turning itself to scrap (which it might be) or fighting.

 

Both reving and in gear accelerating

 

When you say turning itself how do you mean?

 

I'm more joking than anything. But if it's making metallic scraping noises, I'd be as worried as you are that it's turning itself into scrap. Sorry, but I'm not much help beyond understanding your concern.

 

it is a play on words with your misspelling.

scrapping is not recommended for your vehicle. unless its a broken subaru.

for other creative methods to fixing your car please consult @ShortytheFirefighter for additional guidance.

 

This thread tho...

Manual , and because it will create the noise consistently while driving or just revving the engine to 3500-4k rpms and sounds like its right in between the driver and passenger towards the dashboard

 

Have you Done any previous work in that area recently?

 

Nope only had the car for around a month now , but if it has anything to do with it , the car does need alignment
