Haris 0 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 This is starting to drive me crazy I've replaced all pipes now, but I still get a whining noise..I've narrowed it down to it being this bit here under accelerator cable, as whenever I touch it I can stop the whining. But I can't see how it would effect it as it's just a spring isn't it?I'm confused, should I go ahead and get a replacement part?Here is a video for those who don't believe it's coming from that bit, it squels as soon as I press it downhttp://s864.photobucket.com/albums/ab207/H4r1s_photo/?action=view¤t=011.mp4 << videoThe idle also isn't completely spot onany help would be appreciated!

cabrioman 6 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 it does sound strange mate but if that causing the noise then see if you can get a 2nd TB with that valve on ... Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Odd. I'll look at mine tomorrow see what it is! Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I took a look at mine the other day, and I am unsure what that valve actually does! mine, at least, doesnt appear to be connected to any pipes (although, I dont have much connecetd up in my engine bay at the moment) does your's have any hoses going into the unit?

Haris 0 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 nope not connected to anything which is why I'm confused! Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 could it be something like vibration, or even a red-herring? could be something around that area? thing is, it sounds more of a squeel than a vacuum leak? Link to post Share on other sites
Haris 0 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 if I hold it down long enough, I can actually make the engine stall which is why I'm lead to believe it is a vacuum leak?? Link to post Share on other sites
Meeerrrk 0 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 isnt it just a damper for the throttle return to idle? by pushing it back your actually allowing the throttle to close slightly further than it normally would, and hense the engine can stall? Just my thinking, not fact!... Link to post Share on other sites
