98 a4 2.8 30v making whine noise
#2
Can you be anymore specific? Does it do it at idle and then go away? How long did it last? Did the pitch change with a change in RPMs? Where did it sound like it was coming from? Was it very loud or just enough to be noticed?

i have a similar problem, it started when i did my timing, i turned on my car (without the radiator/coolant etc. hooked up) it seemed to come from the fan NOT connected to the block(passenger side).
when i first heard it it was LOUD as hell. but now again it happens when i start it for like 10mins, but its very faint, almost like my turbo doesn't have enough oil(but its not from the turbo) it goes away after its idled for a few minutes. and there's no logical reason why the fan would make this noise.
just thought id add, it has no affect on driving or power etc. whether i let it idle for 5secs or 10mins.
obviously i have a 1.8t, 2000.
