I've posted about this before, but have a difficult time believing it's the BPV at only 31k miles. I had a hard time getting it to make the sound today for some reason; it just made a short toot. On a trip to the Adirondacks not long ago on the twisty back roads where you can do 60 easily it was honking like mad. Even my mother (oblivious to anything mechanical) asked what the darn sound was and said she was surprised I hadn't done something about it yet. I'll probably do a vacuum test on it before spending $60 on a new valve. It's been doing it for seven months (since I got the car) and hasn't gotten any worse... At first I thought it was normal. Let me know what you think from the video though please. :)
