vanossa 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Hi. This noise is bugging me and I thought I'd ask the forum to help with identifying it, before I take it for a check up at a mechanics. I did post this same question recently, but not sure if it was readable or if I was just unlucky that no-one viewed the post?? The link below is a youtube clip, as it was the only way I could load the data. Thanks in advance. Please listen with earphones for maximum quality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLGc5MiWvVs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vanossa 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Too many noises. What one was it? Good call. It's the noise every second or so that resembles a hammer banging on a pipe in the distance. It's constant in the time frame of the clip, but only audible at certain angles/shots with the phone cam. Sorry for the quality. If no one can help with this clip, I'll post another when I get the opportunity. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Can you hear where in the engine bay it is coming from. Maybe the front of the aircon pump? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanossa 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Can you hear where in the engine bay it is coming from. Maybe the front of the aircon pump? Ok...possible aircon pump?..... I have tried to find out which side or where in the engine bay, but been unable to. On the first start ups of the day is when the engine bay is the noisiest too. When it's warmed up the sound that I hear has gone...... It's a bit of a bugger really It's noticeable inside the car with doors shut driving out to the road in the mornings. And right at the very end of this clip you can hear it for 2 seconds after I have shut the bonnet? I may re-post this query again with some better analysis and recording.
