jordyboy2 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2009 Hey this is just an idea, check your mirrors if they're out of place just a little bit they tend to whistle, well mine do anyway and they look similar to yours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arcon 3 Report post Posted March 17, 2009 just following up on this - i had it checked out and its been traced to tensioners on the belts...? i hope that makes sense and i heard correctly lol. in any case there's a shortage on them in NZ right now i have to wait a week or so. i haven't been quoted yet but if anybody knows what sort of cost this would incur that would be cool.
