RICHARD+PHILIP Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Right I'm a bit lost for ideas my 1.6 vx westfield has just developed a whistling noise on inital start up for the first 5 minutes you touch the throttle and the whistling increases in pitch abit like a supercharger noise! OK I think it's the water pump er no Must be the alternator then er wrong again must be the timing pulleys yet again no so I'm left with the dry sump pump which hasn't been changed unless anybody else has any woderful ideas! so Have you? Let the laughter commence! Quote

Frau Vesty Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 So the whistling is the sound of the kettle boiling in preparation for the insertion of a small furry mammal? (Sorry Phil, hope someone comes along to help properly soon...) Quote

Frau Vesty Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Strange looking old bloke now removed from boot (er who was that anyway! ) A quick look at the picture properties revealed the name "whittaker". A quick google of "whistle whittaker" revealed that bloke to be Roger Whittaker. As you can see here, he did quite a lot of whistling... Quote
Turbo Tommo Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 (Sorry Phil, hope someone comes along to help properly soon...) You'll be losing your honourary bloke status with any more of this drivvle!! Quote
Frau Vesty Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Sorry Tommo, what was I thinking Surely everyone knows by now that if you want constructive technical help, you need to post in techie talk. Everywhere else simply commands abuse PS do you mean drivel? Quote
