    Sounds a bit like transmission whine to me.

    For 'rally' sounds you need one of these!

      Sounds like a fake rally car now.

      Sound comes from the centre of the dash, and has pips and crackles like a speaker noise. When I indicate you can hear the ticks coming from the source.
      sounds like the suppressor on the electrics has gone and interfering with the radio. this used to happen on cars older than about 1985. you could try putting a suppressor on the stereo but perhaps the stereo is at fault.

      check the battery connections too and from the body to battery as well.

            Just had a look and there is an Info Rapid titled "Whistling in the central speaker changing with the engine speed", it points the finger at a connection with the Bass Box in the back.

            Because of the grief I got before I can't post it...

              Could you PM it to Joni or I? I imagine this is the loose earth cable fix? As the car's out of warranty are info rapide's still covered?

                  Just sent Joni a link to some cute kittens....

                  My understanding would that if the car is outside warranty then the info rapids would be charged for.

                    Also, for anybody looking for a legacy list of IR's that I found off my own back with no assistance from Biggy please see here:

                    I'll work on moving these over to a directory on the server at some point this weekend.

                        I also have the joy of listening to this sound. Can I fix it on the drive or is it a job for the garage man. Struggling to locate the fix on the forum. Rob
