woody 0 Posted April 1, 2009 Driving my VR6 to work this morning I heard a some kind of air leak. As I changed up gear , dipped the clutch the hissing noise went away but as soon as I let the clutch go back in it came back again. Any Ideas anyone of where to look thanks Woody Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_leon_ 0 Posted April 1, 2009 Can you hear it when idling in the bay? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomB 0 Posted April 2, 2009 If you can't hear it at idle in the engine bay but could hear it while moving, I think it might be something other than an air leak. However, it could be a part moving under load creating the hole! Common places are the large plastic air intake elbow that runs from the MAF sensor to the back of the block (lots of junctions to break) and the Idle Pot Damper Valve. I found mine by moving parts around while it was idling and seeing what hissed! Good luck, Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
