    That sounds like your turbo whistling Craig.

    Check for any loose pipes is all i can think off as it sounds like air is escaping from somewhere.

    I maybe wrong but hopefully somone who has had a similar problem might be able to enlighten you.

    Snowman, you got your ears on?

    its strange cos the car one day will run really well and be supprisingly quick for an dirty diesel then the next day it will feel flat and guttless, never any warning lights though, and very very little smoke if not non.

    just a hard noise to describe so figured a video would work better but its 100 times louder in reality

    I had a dti and it didnt make that noise.

    some days though it would go like a rocket and some like a sloth.

    no problem with it though - very strange.

    I think car will be going this month or next as I'm fed up of all the "common faults" just curious to what this noise was had lots of gueses but no one so far has suffered the same noise just glad I haven't got round to doing suspension yet.

    Anyone want to buy a vectra elite lol (joke)
