gu snorkel making whistling noise-what to do??

Post by GU4me »

hi guys
i recently got arb to fit a safari snorkle to my 04 gu 3.0l and was happy with the job they did. not a couple of days after when i had no stereo in the car i could here a whistling noise from the snorkel that was not there before after 70km/h and its not the turbo noise. move the head a couple of times to see if this would fix but no good. got the day off yesterday and went down to arb to see what they could do. took the guy for a drive to listen and he said well i dont know what we can do try playing around with the head a bit but otherwise they couldnt help me>>my brothers gu got one done by another arb store and it makes no noise even with 2 gps aerials on it and a roof rack..

question is what would you guys do??
should i just put it down to something hanging off the side will make noise??

quick solution, turn your stereo up mate.. :D


on a serious note. i hear the safari's aero dynamics arent as good as the genuine snorkels and they do whistle. but until i see the proof i call BS..

:D

Genuine Snorkels??
You mean as in the ones Nissan offers which I think is just an Airtec with Nissan stamped on the side.
