The sound can be best heard from the sides of the car if istand behind each of the front 2 doors.....it sounds like a fan randomly scrapping something or a person going 'ch..ch..ch...chchchc..ch ..ch...' when i pop the hood the sound is more of a scrathcing 'ch' from under the valve cover area....it seems loudest when idleing....of course maybe i just cant hear it when driving....you said 'do my brakes feel hard'....i thought about that and then i recalled thinking that i noticed they seemed hard a few times this week...interesting...but the noise is constant while the brake hardness is occasional.
