Somewhat "loud" idling...seems to be a "WOT" sound

Curious to know if anyone else is experiencing this.

On REALLY hot days, the 4xe idles and seems quite loud. Sort of like a "mini-diesel" engine. Even get some idiot looks from the kids at the drive thru.

That being said, I usually drive in E-Save mode with Max Regen on so when my wife drives, all she has to do is get in and drive (in Hybrid mode). This keeps me from having to charge every night! Gets the battery up to 95% after a day or two swapping out.

So, has anyone else experienced this quite loud idle, or so I need to take Jud-e to the shop?

Thanks in advance!
