Whirring noise - richje100 - 11:th-Apr-2014 Hi guys, a while back car started making a whirring noise and vx came out with me and he said it was the engine discharging unused boost pressure. Since then it's been doing it an awfull lot. I've uploaded a quick vid to youtube if anyone with a keen ear can have a listen Noise - YouTube Forward to about 15 secs and u can hear it when pressing in clutch to change gear. I can hear it on my phone if u can't let me know and I'll get the missus to hold my phone tomorrow Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Whirring noise - richje100 - 11:th-Apr-2014 Another example about 4secs in http://youtu.be/HmNZgWyFNr0 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Whirring noise - tucpal - 11:th-Apr-2014 there is a known problem with the 1.7cdti making a gurgling or turkey squabble sort of sound it has to do with the fuel pipe going to the high pressure feed vauxhall are aware of this problem and there has been a workshop for the fix take it back to the dealer and ask for the fix to be done it does sound like you have this problem i will look for the workshop fix later on Whirring noise - tucpal - 11:th-Apr-2014 here it is https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CEwQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fworkshop-manuals.com%2Fvauxhall%2Fastra-j%2Fengine%2Ftechnical_service_bulletins%2Fnoise_vibration_rattle%2Fengine_a%2Fz17dtx_high_pressure_pump_moaning_noise%2F&ei=oDFIU_OgOsXY7AbYkIHoAQ&usg=AFQjCNGyR5CCtQ59pbsyqKkBZlyYZmhdrQ&sig2=_LZABj030_fO0279tNjzAA&bvm=bv.64542518,d.ZGU Whirring noise - richje100 - 11:th-Apr-2014 Great cheers pal. When me and the technician walked out to the car I told him the noise and he said he had already looked for it and said its releasing boost pressure where I'm not giving enough revs to use the turbo - strange cos the turbo whistles whilst it does this so I just accepted what he said. It even done it whilst I took him out.

RE: Whirring noise - Scubaz80 - 20:th-Mar-2016 Is it a recall fix that would be done for free or would I have to pay for it RE: Whirring noise - hejhopp123 - 20:th-Mar-2016 Talk with your dealer.. This must be a known issue and pherhaps not an issue that effect the engine more than a wierd sound occurs. Another thread about it: https://www.vxoc.org.uk/forum/Thread-Astra-J-1-7-engine-chirping-and-pressure I also have the same sound on my 1.7 diesel 125 hp.
