sucking noise

[Beas]

Hi, ive had my 182 for bout 5 mounths now. and ive noticed a sort of sucking noise from the engine bay when i put my foot down in any gear. its almost an echoy sucking sound as if its coming from the exhaust but im pretty sure it isn't. doesn't sound like a bad noise just wondered if anyone elses 1*2 does it.
cheers

so that would be the induction kit then...
car has to suck in air to work

If it's under heavy acceleration and it sounds like a slight whistling, it'll be the engine sucking the air in through the air filter.

mine does this
im pretty sure its the sound of the inlet valve opening and the sudden suck

check theres not an engine bolted to the back of the airfilter.

common problem causing this noise

Yeah, I always get asked what air filter I've got on my 172 by people at work. They are suprised when I say it's standard.
