hey guys,

i got this funny noise coming from somewhere near the fan belt. its like a woo woo wooo sound, it so loud it annoying. its come on when the engine is about warm, i would go and tighten it and it would stop then it'll start agian after a few minute drive. i've search and some say it the timing belt so i took of the cover and it look nice and tight not to tight tho. it has the gate sticker on the timing cover saying when it was change. but the timing belt is black i thuoght they were blue? the gates one?

another problem is when ever i turn on the aircon i hear a click noise and just under the fan belt that thing that sping for the air con, it spin and stop then go back to spinning is it suppose to do that? i think it only start to happen when i started to tighten the fan belt. also my power steering feel abit harvey once it warm up also?

sorry my english suck bad!!

thank guys

The woo noise isnt just the clutch fan is it? It will lock up once you get it hot enough and start to make a noise with engine RPM.

Dont worry about the clutch on the a/c compressor kicking in and cutting out. Its cycling, its supposed to do that.

Check your power steering fluid level in the reseviour.

hey guys the noise is still there. if my rev is above 750 the noise wont be there but at night when i turn on the lights the revs drop and the woo woo noise would come back on.

any ideas? the fan seem pretty lose, it spin pretty fast too.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
