cold morning start noise 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Mike H on  Mon Feb 10 12:32 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hi All,

I have an '95 854T. I've been going through the archives for this problem that I've had all winter and its been baffling me to no end.
When going through the archives.. even outside of the 850's forum there was no definite solution. According to the archives alot of people seem to get this noise which is loud and irritating. Maybe by posting it again someone out there has a solution.

When I start the car on a day below freezing (car parked outside overnight) I get a high pitched whistling noise. Very loud and somewhat intermitantly. No specific driving range. I sometimes get it at idling too. The noise eventually goes away after a couple of minutes and me ducking to hide myself. And doesnt seem to reoccur for the rest of the day. Lately I've been letting the car warm up for 5-10 minutes just to avoid the embarassement.

Does anyone have a solution for this?? Or do I just move to a warm State??

Thanks,

Mike
