    when i accelerate from a dead stop about 1/4 of the throttle there is a weird fluttering noise. kind of sounds like a bird flapping its wings rapidly but more mechanical. it sounds like its coming from the front right of the car. im hoping its not drivetrain.

    anyone have any idea of what this is?
