Funny Noise On Pass Side

sorrowfulkiller · November 21st, 2007, 06:58 PM

So I started up my car today and I hear a really weird whining noise on the pass side, I was thinking it may have been the canister for the evap system since I know that my valve is a little screwed up right now... could it be that making the noise or does anyone else have any ideas?

It sounds like it's coming from either underneath the dash on the pass side or in the fender

96GtGoodz · November 21st, 2007, 07:37 PM

No, a whining noise like a supercharger almost except not as high pitched

96GtGoodz · November 21st, 2007, 08:59 PM

hmmmmm is it constant like a supercharger or does it quickly cut in and out (like very quickly)

sorrowfulkiller · November 21st, 2007, 09:29 PM

Cuts in and out somewhat... sometimes it stays on longer than other times

i would also say definately the pulley i had the same thing i thought it was in the glove in the wheel in the fender and then i was told the idler pulley i looked under the hood and that was it i said no way it wasnt in the engine BUT IT WAS NEVER SAY NO WAY it could be

StangAddiction · November 22nd, 2007, 07:06 PM

im a firm believer that it's a pulley...Theres nothing in the dash that would be moving to make a noise like that. Im thinking its a pulley. At higher rpms, the pulley wont make much noise because its probably spinning much too fast but at lower rpms it may have a slight wobble from being loose. You could try tightening the bolts on your pulleys and seeing if that helps any.

Cold air intake?

somedays i can hear mine like a supercharger and others i can even hear it.

96GtGoodz · November 22nd, 2007, 08:10 PM

na matt i dont think its the CAI i firmly believe as well its the pulley that went out for me its the same symptoms

StangAddiction · November 23rd, 2007, 09:25 AM

My cold air and plenum together make a whistle noise at part throttle and when i let off the gas after full throttle but not at idle...It doesnt make a whining noise, but distinctly whistles some...

Also check the starter, that also sits on the passenger side right near the foot area. It could be "free" spinning after you start the car and could be on its way out.

Just a thought.

That's a thought... I was wondering about that because it is starting to take a bit longer to turn on the car... if that is the case does anyone know offhand how much they cost? not worried about install I could do it myself.

If it is the starter they around around $125 after you give them your core.

You also do not have to use a factory part if that is the case.
