Weird Whining noise - slow speed
I have a weird whining noise when slow speed manovering. I have removed the missus but it still remains.
I initially thought it was the gearbox as it seemed go up and down with revs, only occur in 1st/2nd gear, and only in drive.
Whilst on holiday (and riding around in the passenger seat a bit) i found that pressing the ECON button it stops. It is audiable thought all gears and speeds but more so and low speeds (possibly due to less wind noise, possible because its louder, hard to say) but the pitch changes with the revs and gear changes.
Any ideas? some kind of fan on its way out? Im certainly glad its not the gearbox whining!
