Today I went to the shop to pick up my car, Started the car. waited till it wormed up, Rivved it a little and heard this whining sound! it's a wearied sound like if you have a damaged power steering bearing, or a supercharge. The sound is low. You only can hear it if your in the car door closed, or if you open the hood.
Asked a mechanic (not the one who worked on the car) and he says he doesn't hear it! asked the seals person (he was out side of the car) says he doesn't hear it! so i left the car in the shop so no internal damage happens if there was an issue. and that the mechanic who worked on it can investigate whats going on.
I really can't wait till Monday to know. and i have a strong feeling that the sound is from the sandwich plat (a member on this forum had a problem with his. that he had to replace it. but he had a diffrant sound a clicking sound) So i called Z1 motorsport to send me a Nissan oil plat overnight, and i explained my situation. The tech told me that their car have the same sound! but they also installed an under drive pulley at the same time. Told me to call him Tuesday to confirm if its the under drive pulley or from the oil plate.
Still wasn't satisfied.
Called Stillen, explained my car situation after the install, and he told me i have to call Monday, coz no tech works Saturday.
I can live with the sound if i get confirmed that the sound is normal and no damage or harm will happen to the engine.
I don't have an oil pressure gauge to monitor and see whats going on. but that will be on top of the To Do list.
