HDi Whistling......BEFORE Starting! - Toms306 - 23-11-2012
Hi guys,
Bit of an odd one, my HDi whistles similar to a kettle when I put it to ignition on before starting.....its not the fuel pump as the noise is somewhere in the bay. Doesn't do it every time, but does do it every time after its been left for a while (an hour or so). Lasts for about 5 seconds, and carries on making the noise if I start the engine before that 5 seconds is up.
Any idea what it is? As I didn't think there should be anything 'moving' before starting the engine, so no idea what the noise is.
Also, seperate issue, theres a 'ringing' noise when I clutch in - is that the thrust bearing wearing out and making that noise as it spins down on the input shaft?
Cheers
Tom

Never heard of that before lol, but yeah it is an earlyish one (W reg) so I'll take your word for that being the issue then.

It's your giraffe filtration system mate. It's really expensive too. Sucks.
And the release bearing would make that noise.. Just leave it be until it packs up.

Ah f*ck, better get down to Peugeot in the morning and order one then.....anyone got the part number?
And oh dear, thought it would be that bearing, just hope it and the clutch last until I sell the car then!
