Whirring Noise when accelerating
Hello
I have 2008 Yaris 1.0 Its done 10k miles. I've noticed today that when i accelerate, i can hear a whirring noise coming from the front of the car. If i put the clutch down, the noise stops, until i take my foot off the clutch again. If i have the car in neutral and rev the engine i can hear the sounds I've had a mechanic have a look and he can't see anything wrong. So any ideas?. Thanks EDIT: It sounds more like a whistle blowing, Last edited by RatedRVD; 05-21-2012 at 02:00 PM. |

Have the water pump checked for leaks. It kind of makes a hissing noise and is known to be an issue with the 1.0 engine.

Hi
It sounds more like a whistle blowing, and it seems to be coming from the passenger side of the bonnet. I havn't check the water pump- i dont know what to look for I went to another mechanic and he said its not the throw out bearing, or clutch related and its just normal Yaris noise. I rang Toyota and they said they can look at it if i pay a "investigation fee" of £90/$142 so they can identify it. |

Took it to different mechanics, he said the Water pump has been leaking in the past, but isn't now.
It sounds like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsJy1IAqNn0 *not my video - not a yaris either its the whistle like sound. Last edited by RatedRVD; 05-27-2012 at 01:14 PM. |

New Mechanic says its the Alternator whistling.
Its fine, but its just making a louder noise then normal. £245 to get it replaced. |

Am i right in assuming most Yaris Alternators shouldn't go after 10k miles?

Did you pop the hood and physically look in the engine bay? You could have a hidden Supper Charger!! That what it sounds like to me... :P
