Very VERY Annoying Noise!

Post by ross-taylor »

My car is driving me mad i just cant work out where the noise is coming from. its a very high pitch noise almost so high you cant here it, it doesnt change pitch when you accelerate or slow down.

It dosnt affect how the car drives at all just very annoying.

Anyone got any ideas what it could be?

its hard to tell where its coming from i can here it inside and outside the car, and it happens when stationary as well as when moving.

Ditto this, even did it whilst stationary with the engine off iirc, that was the only time I could hear it.
