I have never had any whistler from my car, however while driving in Epping yesterday evening, I was follwing three cars doing about 55mph (don't worry it was a 60mph zone ) . The next thing I know this large rock (part of a pavement kerb) appeared in the road, the other cars went stright over it without a problem. unfortunatley my car is a fair bit lower than theirs. I hit the rock and dragged it under the car for about 50 meters until I stopped. I had to jack the car up slightly to get it out from underneath the car (it was wedged). Now I also have a whistle while accelerating, seems to happen from about 3.5k rpm onwards it's loudest in first gear. Have I got a boost leak or do you think this rock has done some serious damage ?

id check your intercoolers/pipes for damage if i were you :(

 

can you get it on a ramp?? you could always pop it down to me sometime.

Thanks Paul. I usually use Jeff, but don't want to have to take the car that far. Anyone know any Z mechanic's in the East london / essex area ?

I think MJP are in Essex.
