Hi All,

I recently had my throttle body cleaned as i found that my engine kept cutting out when coming to a stop (traffic lights etc). That problem seems to be solved now but ever since then I have been getting a strange noise from the engine bay, its hard to explain but almost like a small motorbike sound (secondary to the engine when accelerating). If I release the throttle pedal then it sounds like the noise is slowing down. Could it be the fan belt, cambelt, some kind of vibration. Any other ideas?

I will be taking it back to the mechanic this weekend.

Cheers Yatz
 
I think I have had this problem when I removed the EGR blank. Is it a 'whirr' noise related to engine speed?
 
Yeah thats right, any ideas on how to fix? I do currently have the engine management light on due to a EGR valve fault

Cheers Yatz
