weird whistle

[bobreece]

right my fans where whistling so got them replaced with new ones and now the noise is back. its like it comes from the clutch area aswell when i change gera its a whistley metal noise not like the normal turbo whoosh but you can only hear that whoosh when the window is down and the fans only whistle when i accelerate any ideas guys as the vw garge keeps saying there is nowt wrong but i can hear it and its getting worse/more frequent

[topher]

well you've just confused the f*ck out of me

what does the noise sound like, where do you think its coming from.. and when does it occur?

[bobreece]

noise is a whistle like one of those old plastic kids flute toys

coming from clutch pedal area and also fom fans sometimes

when accelerating the fans make the noise then when i change gear and press the clutch the other whistle noise happens its like a quick 1 second whistle the time it takes me to push clutch all the way in

release bearing? 

[bobreece]

whats that then?

[Rhyso]

whats that then?

bit inside your gearbox - costs about £40 but is normally only replaced when you put in a new clutch due to the labour involved

still can't work out what you mean about your fans    i never hear mine when the car is in motion 

you got manual aircon or climatronic??

[bobreece]

climatronic its like something is blowing through them at a very high speed but only when i accelrate and dont say the air. i mean its seperate like somthing else hope u understand its hard to put into words m8

[Rhyso]

any chance you can get a recording of it??

got any smoke coming out of the back??

its possible you got a split pipe 

[bobreece]

thought it might be a leak i sometimes feel like it loses power especially after a long journey recording would be difficult m8 just imagine a high pitch tinny whistle noise

[bobreece]

no smoke at all
