Engine whine when cold

[Diagro]

Hey.

I get a very loud whine from engine when cold, worse on cold start but still there when running warm.

Aux belt was replaced with kit in may. Along with water pump.

Gets louder high the revs.

The Pas does give noise when wheels turned fast, nothing bad tho.

what would be the first thing to check?

 

[Le Baguette]

Just guessing here but dephaser?

I understand timing belt hasn't been replaced, just aux with water pump, no?

 

[Diagro]

That was replaced in may. It's not that

Will be something on the aux belt system... You'd need to get it checked out properly.

 

[Diagro]

It has to the the PAS pump or the Alt pully making the noise.

is it possible to replace the Alternators Bearings?

Does it get louder when you turn the steering wheel? Reason I say is my old 182 used whine when it ran low on pas fluid. It had a leak on the pressure sensor. The whine went when the fluid was topped up but ultimately replaced the sensor that had the leak and then the whine went altogether.

Tested this on way home.
nope no extra noise at all.
Constant sound

Here is the whine

Not looked at the vid as I'm at work, but altenators wine when they start failing. Mine also got hot (as in too hot to touch). Easy to check this after driving.

Was the kit replaced it just the belt ?

Video doesn't sound healthy I don't think that's noise of any pump . When you got the dephaser and timing belt done . I hope you done aux kit and not just the belt

I have something similar, I've had both my belts kits done, dephaser and waterpump replaced (genuine by specialist) and my car also has a little whine first thing in the morning, go's away after a minute or two, same as you im thinking its an early warning for a fail at some time, pain in the hoop of a thing

Both Belts kits, Dephaser and waterpump all done together.

Was no whine before (apart from dephaser noise and very lumpy)

hence why i think its PAS or Alternator related

Mines constant, worse under heavy load and whilst turning seems to be noticably louder. Im checkin PAS fluid levels but ive got it booked in next week.

Pas pump was the cause of my whine like you have. Replaced but stil have the whine. Only its the gf tellingly to slow down lmao

If it was the PAS pump it would get worse when turning the wheels.

This was mine:

Which is what I'm saying. I'm guessing it's your alternator which I also have an issue with now: (
