Whirring when cold....
« on: 10 March 2008, 16:56:58 »

Hi, My 2000 2.5V6 CDX has a whirring noise abit like a fan running, when started from cold.  It lasts about 30 seconds then dies away as if a fan has been switched off.  The milage is 174K and this noise has been abit more noticable recently.  Any ideas?   and should I be worried??  Cheers Steve  :-/

Secondary air pump -  nothing to worry about.   You can unplug it if you want but as it only operates for a short while its not really worth bothering with.
