| Whine noise under load doing 110-130km/h (70-80mph) |
|
Hello from the Netherlands,
A problem i would like to share with you.
My car makes a strange flutey whistle-type noise which starts at about 110km/h (70Mph) and stops at 130km/h (80Mph). It's a constant whine cruising the highway, the pitch doesn't change. It immediately stops when i go off the throttle and comes back pressing the accelerator. So it can't be the tires i guess.
It doesn't change with the engine revs. Also the aircon is not the issue, the noise remains pressing the Econ button.
The whine doesn'n come from the cabin or windshield. I cant't describe the exact location, underneat the car or engine bay?
I have driven the car now for about 5000 km and its not getting worse, but is very noticeable...
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
Appreciate any advise.
The car has done 140.000km (87.000miles). It's an automatic TDV6, MY07
Greetings Lume
PS. Another question... how can i add an a.k.a. under my forum name? Traxide SC40

check your turbo hoses for a split, in particular the O/S (right) top hose, just had mine done after having a whinning noise when driving at that range
