Hey there,
My 96 Stagea 25x has developed a rhythmic whiny sound, Im pretty sure it began when I got the cambelt done at 102,000km
At first though it was only occasional and very faint so I just assumed it would go away as the cambelt settled in or something.
Anyway 10,000 km later and it is there pretty much all the time and is really starting to annoy me regardless whether it is doing damage or not!
Its only at idle, and happens in all gears, ie park neutral drive etc
As soon as some throttle is added though it disappears.
Have added video so please add your 2 cents.
Dropped by a mechanic but he basically said it sounds like its from within the cambelt casing but hard to tell without opening things up and doing some decent investigation.
So looking at few hundred just to get started.
So if anyone else has experienced this or has any tips/advice would be much appreicated.
Its completely stock and I might foot down on occasion but generally its fairly normal use, Im no racer or anything.
Cheers,
Tom
