So I have a "Whining Noise " on cold start ups and I did a search which lead me here. I was wondering if any one has found the problem or cause to this noise?
I found the diagram on this tread to check the air pump on the driverside under the airbox/battery tray. It seams to me that in my case the noise is coming from the air pump. My question is what is this air pump used for? If i where to remove or disconnect power to it will this cause any problems. The diagram heading is "Emission control with air pump" will I fail Emission test?
Thanks
