Hi, we purchased our used car about 5 months ago & since then we've had a lot of problems, inc new radiator, water pump, head gasket and cylinder head skimmed. Our car has 43K on the clock - High i know. Yesterday when we were stationary and setting off therre was a really loud whirring sound! and it has done it every time since then, it doesn't do it when turning or changing gears. We had CITY driving on at the time, we have turned that off and tried again & it is fine. Any ideas on what it is and how much it will cost? Annoyingley our warranty ran out at the end of March! The steering warning light has not come on and the steeering felt fine.

Thanks,

Marie
 
Don't think its the steering! Think it could be one of the belts slipping a little but not sure. Someone else will be able to make it clearer


Ok thanx for the help. Have been reading other threads and they all seem to say that the warning light came on & the steerin went really heavy. Ours has never done either, went out in it this morning and it was fine. Not too sure what to do now
