Whistle

Featured Replies

I've got a whistle coming from the front left of the engine bay as I sit in the car to start it up. It's just like someone making a whistle for about 8 seconds then it stops. What's down the left side of the engine (as sitting in the driver's seat) that can make this noise? Clutch, air con pressurising? Guesses??? It's only started recently... cold weather? It's not even in gear when this happens... weird. Any ideas?



I get a slight whistle from that area as soon as I turn the ignition on .

As its not even running I think mine is just the fuel system pressuring and returning to tank when the fuel pump primes the system prior to startup .

Mine only does it for 3 seconds though

Yeah, it's weird... it's as though something is pressurised and releasing. It's only on starting the engine from cold. Needs further investigation me thinks...
