On further Google searches for whistling power steering, I am convinced at the moment that is the cause of the noise. I have just purchased some power steering conditioner and will give this a try.

GQ with funny engine whistle

Hi, Got a 93 GQ TB42E petrol (injected). Developed a funny whistling noise a month back and have been unable to identify the problem.
