i think its the secondary air pump. under the n/s wing at the front behind the bumper.
 its been whining for a bit and  iv been trying to find a second hand one.. well its died a death, sounds like the bearings have now given up on it.. prob is i'm away in the next couple of days, can i just unplug it?? will it make any difference???

unplug it and block off SAI pipes...

Or you you could go to your local scrapyard and get one for around £20. Well that's what mine cost when it went.

Disconnect for now, and sort out at your leisure, or just leave disconnected forever, it will do no harm

cheers lads. this is the second one iv had, but the scrapyards don't seem to have many in.. which pipes do i have to block off??? or can i just unplug the wire???

Mine's doing the same,but I'm a complete idiot when it comes to cars. (although I did buy a 3 litre elite, so I must have some intelligence. lol)

Could someone explain in detail, exactly what I need to unplug and where it is etc.

I would be eternally grateful

Regards

I think you just need to unplug it, not block the pipes.

It just under the front nearside bumper.
