when i turn my car on the idling is really loud. then after my car warms up its a little softer but its still pretty loud. at first i thought it was my intake but i dont think the intake makes your car sound like that. it souns like a loud radiator. i brought it to the shop and he said something about the variable timing.

anyone know wut it can be?
