I have a 2012 JK that makes a growling sound. The sound come from the the front passenger side. Then the motor warn up the sound goes away. It is so annoying.

Anyone else have this problem. I want to take to the dealer but just don't have time right now.

Mine does it. But only when it's sat and been cold for a while. No performance or drivability issues after letting warm up. Has alot to do with the high idle trying to warm it up faster I believe. I think it's normal.
