a fluter noise under neith V70-XC70

98 v 70r that has a fluter noise coming from under neith the car only heard when the engine is under load like going up hill ....sounds like a exahst leak do these models leak in a certain place ...i know its not the lifter problem ... i brought it to my dealer and they could not figure it out ..in fact they wouldnt even admit my car for repairs any ideas or past experiences ???

    Ford--my 98 V70R AWD does the EXACT same thing! I posted about 2 months ago here with no imput! I have tried high octane gas, looked for exhaust leaks etc to no avail! I still get that "twidery" noise under load between 20 and 50 MPH!

        NA-I still have the factory system and its very solid! Why then under different modes of acceleration do I still hear the same consistent flutter? I think the techie is "stretching" a little! It does make me a little coookie as the car otherwise would be nice a quiet! Then again it is a "valvo"!!
