Interesting. I didn't realize starting your car cold causes the intake to have pressure instead of vacuum. Didn't realize that turning the steering wheel during this time would also cause the intake to create a seal.

I guess a dealership and your ex nascar buddy knows more than 99% of the people on this forum.

 

lol my car doesnt make the noise any more so i guess it was a fluke when i did turn the wheel and it shut off, it was also on the 3rd start of the day after turning it on and off, maybe it was already warm a little, but they said a pipe had a hole in it and now its not making anymore of that sound so i guess im good

 

Well either way, I'm glad you got it figured out. The exhaust tubing had a physical hole in it? And the hole would seal after is warms up? Or they meant you had a hole between a tubing connection or something?

 

<- mumbles something about the recent rise in temp in the Pac Nor'west and then goes back to sulking

 

they said it had a hole in it and when it was cold the rubber pipes harden and once it warmed up it would expand closing the hole, it was near a connection, they just replaced the tube and it was done like a 30 mins fox but it took them a few hours to find it lol

 

So a boost leak or what? Keep us posted when it gets ***** *** cold again

 

What, exactly, was it?

 

best advice for you as a newer evo owner... this is what I have done for the past 8 years. just wait till it breaks completely, & then get a new one. or else you will hear a new noise every day LoL

 

Btw this sounds like the old mechanic runaround lol

 

it does but it was a hose that had a hole in it, i dont know why i didnt ask about what hose it was he just said it was connected to the intake, he said it wasnt a big deal i just shrugged it off lol

 

Just to make sure that this thread is complete and can be used appropriately by others who find it when they search....

The video showed us a whining noise coming from the front of the engine (i.e., the left side when view from in front of the car). The noise goes away when the car is warmed up and may also be changed by turning the steering wheel. The car did not throw a lean or rich code.

The "fix" is to replace or repair some unnamed hose on the intake.

 

I guess that's the fix. A hole in the random intake hose

 

Lol I bet me and you would really get along

 

Do you plug you car I at night ? I used to have this issue when I parked on the street . Let's say I'm paying rent for my neighbors garage

 

Let's also say that you're paying monthly fees for a phone with auto-correct.
