Humming Noise at low revs C30
Hi all,
I have a Volvo C30 1.6D and today I have noticed that when I put the car in to 1st gear and start to accelerate and I can hear a kind of deep humming noise coming from the engine. This happens throughout gear 1 and most of gear 2. As I go in to gear 3 the humming fades away (possibly because by this time I am getting higher in the revs?) I would be extrememly grateful if anyone could help me. Thanks, Scott |

I have just tested the car again and have noticed the noise is has a slight whistling howl to it too.

If you keep the engine at idle and pull up the oil dipstick, does the sound go away?
