That could be the problem, only on Gerbil working!

"Skittering" is a good description of what I am hearing.

Re: I had the same chirping/flutterying/skittering sound. The

dealer replaced to DV. Now I have a low frequency drone when baking off the throttle.

My skittering was fixed by replacing my DV.

it happens when the non-metallic piston in the DV heats up and begins to get 'sticky' relative to the spring and walls of the valve. The skittering is a result of the piston moving back into place in a stuttered fashion as it gets kinda grabby.
