Golf Gti 180 whistling noise
« on: 25 May 2014, 18:14 »
Hi. New to forum sorry if this post is in wrong place lol. Anyways I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I was driving my mk4 Gti 180 yesterday and noticed it's now starting to make a loud whistling noise. It does it on accelerating, seems to lack power when the noise kicks in. The car is completely stock. Just had the water pump changed literally 2 weeks ago. I mention this because It could have something to do with it? Anyone that could help will be much appreciated! http://youtu.be/rV9cd_eZLjo
