At low/medium RMPs my yaris makes an odd sound. I originally thought it was just shuddering from the clutch so I've gotten use to keeping the car in higher RPMs. However, I can now replicate the noise in neutral. I posted a video so you can hear it. https://youtu.be/kYehgNYcXns This is the best I could capture the sound with my phone camera. It isn't any louder with the window open.

It is sometimes much worse sounding than others. Not sure what the variable is effecting it. Any help is appreciated!

It's an 08 MT 105k miles. Only repairs are water pump at 80k and driver's side airbag sensor.

Take it to a mechanic, it's nearly impossible to make a diagnose through a youtube video, I've been there.

Thanks for the help; wouldn't post this if that was my plan. Not looking for a definitive diagnosis, just some things to check.

Agree +1

Internet mechanics such as this rarely work out.
