Hey guys

I've started noticing the last 2 nights when driving around before heading to work and then heading to work, whenever I seem to get over roughly 3000rpm I start to get this whistling sound, go NFI where its sounding from, and it gets slightly louder the higher in the rev range I get, and it seems to happen in all 5 gears aswell.

Any help appreciated. :thumbsup:

Do u have a pod filter ?

a freind of mine had this whisteling, we found it coming from the pod.

Just a suggestion.

thats usually associated with a ticking noise. not a whistling.
