Hi guys
My lovely 1275 was running fine once again until today where it has decided to get in the Halloween spirit, all be it a day late... There seems to be a noise emminating from somewhere in the engine bay (right ish side??) And was wondering if any of you guys have any idea!

From what i can feel around, the main heater pipe is vibrating when the noise is happening (doesnt always happen, sometimes rev dependent and heater on/off doesnt affect it) the main heater core pipe from the stat vibrates to the sound so maybe just an air bubble thats needs extraditing?
Thanks!

I guess it is that strange mid-high pitch sound you talk about. could it be the belt or waterpump bearing?

As above- water pump or alternator? Spray some belt dressing stuff on the belt also and see if that changes the noise.
