| Whistling sound under acceleration !!!! |
|
Guys , bit odd this but !!!!
Today my 2nd car, a Seat leon FR diesel 59 plate , started making a whistling noise under acceleration, I suffered no loss of power, nor has the engine management light come on ?
Any ideas
Cheers guys
Mark

Air leak on the turbo hose, between turbo - inter cooler - intake to engine 
Look for any splits in the hoses, possible traces of oil, loose hose clamps etc Never get mad - get even !!

My whistle turned out to be the alternator on its way out
