There will be three men in white coats turn up in a van with blacked out windows shortly. They will “listen” to your car with you for a few minutes and then take you for a ride in their van.
I was hoping that someone would tell me it is something mechanical, although I can’t think what it might be. I am not sure if this is supposed to happen though …
OK if you would like to take a seat and start by telling us all which car you have, someone will be able to help.
My 2.5 squeals on the entry in to tight corners at high speeds. Turned out that it was my wife on the passenger seat, she has got used to it now.
It’s probably the PPP (pointless plastic pipe) or cabin resonator that goes from the induction unit on the engine through a hole in the bulkhead into the the passenger’s side of the cockpit. I removed mine immediately after collection an replaced it with a kit from MX5Parts.
I am not familiar with fuel-injected engines, although I have been well-acquainted with a 2 litre straight six engine (with Zenith Stromberg carburettors) and a 5.7 litre V8 engine (with a 4 barrel Holley carburettor) in the past.
I am pretty sure that they both “breathed” continuously. Yet this one seems to breathe about every 20 seconds, so perhaps the Darth Vader theory might be right?
