Hey people,

I have a problem with my car (R32 GTS-t) - It's not really posessed, that's just a joke. But I seriously thought it was the first time this happened.

If my car is cold (and I mean cold, like when its 7am and the windows are still frosty), and I turn right (slightly hard - not throwing it around - usually roundabouts set this off), I get a loud... 'screaming' noise coming from about where the ECU is located.

That is, a high pitched whistle that is quite loud, and most of the time stops when I straighten up, but a few times has persisted until I turn the ignition off and on again.

Is there anything to do with the HICAS in the left kick panel? Could this be the ECU?

I'm expecting jokes back but thanks in advance for any ideas on what the frig is causing this... it freaks my girlfriend out to no end...

Cheers lol!

Bobby.

Maybe a loose belt - power steering? Though usually that will scream as the engine starts. Maybe next try with the windows open to get a different perspective on if its inside or outtide.

maybe your girlfriend is screaming?

lol

on a serious note, i had a similar problem when turning the steering wheel when stationary on a cold start, on a different car, but mechanics are similar... check your belts and fluids

Thanks for the suggestions guys :D, The fan sounds like the likely culprit, it's definitely inside the car, and I usually always have the demister on on cold mornings. I'll take a closer look next time it happens.

Cheers ;)

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 馃檹 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 馃槈. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 馃槏 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
