whiring noise from the engine
« on: 16 April 2006, 00:56 »
Hi all, i was wondering if anyone on here would be able to help me identifying the whiring noise which coming from somewhere in the engine bay, I can;t pint point the exact location but it seem to happen when i exceed over 30mph+. Any idea of what sort of things that can make this noise? Any help would be much appreciated.
