    Ok so I know this is a long shot but have to ask. Has ANYONE had this issue and figured it out? I have a 2020 F8 tributo that I just get 2 months ago. I love every single thing about it. But man, when it's at 2200RPM exactly there is this super annoying vibrating sound that I swear sounds like it's right at the seatbelt bolt area behind my left ear. It's coming from somewhere VERY close to that back left driver corner side. Anyone had this issue? PS it's def not the seatbelt bolt ive tried holding the plastic part against the bolt to make sure thats not whats vibrating and it didnt help.

    I think this may be from my Lexan engine cover. When I push on it it bounces up and down and makes noise. Is this normal? theres tons of "wiggle room" at the back most portion where the latch is. Theres little pads I see where it's supposed to contact but I think theyre too low maybe? Anybody dealt with this before?

    I may take the entire thing off and drive it around to determine if that is indeed what it is. If it isnt that then I am stumped

    Ok so definitely not the engine cover. Does anyone know what that speaker grille looking area is behind the seat below the seatbelt? I feel like it's coming from that area maybe. Is that an actual speaker or are they just in the doors?

    Does anyone know what this grill is? Is this a speaker, or where they designed it so engine sound can come into the cabin? I need to remove this panel. I assume it just pulls apart?

    So I had the same issue- but it was at 2500-2700 rpm no matter what gear. And it was like a chatter- rock.. it was coming from behind.


    The dealer had my Pista for 3 days. I drove it to them and tried replicating it. For the life of me could not when there. Thank god when I was driving 2 hrs there I took a recording On my phone of how obvious and loud(relatively/annoying) it was. Sent the video.


    It was coming from the back and aounded maybe it was the carbon engine covers loose something or interior something loose And it was reverberating.

    after 3 days. They took apart many interior and engine items to eliminate The noise possibility.



    it ended being a slightly loose rivet part of frame inside the air box only at that rpm... You could not see and it reverberated the noise into the interior! It was driving them nuts as well. They drilled it out and put a new one. They had a couple false finishes where they called and said found the culprit- ready for pickup. A washer etc didn’t have a nut.. but when testing next day- it came back and they said. Still there-Wasn’t it… had to keep on looking…

    I am confident no Indy or sound stereo company would have been able to solve/ identify it. It was a good few grand to make the car perfect.

    Also if by seat belt- the leather/interior panels by seatbelt have push pins- 3 of them.. they need realigned and pushed in- it’s held by plastic and the pins are metal that push into metal clip/feame frame. Careful to align and push In. You could bend the plastic etc. noise I heard came from back. If seatbelt area it maybe less of a mystery.
