hello i have a 57 zetec galaxy mk3 and when driving up a hill i have noticed a whistling noise that is abnormal. The Turbo seems to work fine, i originally thought that it needed a good drive on the motorway to probably unclog the gunk, so i did this and afterwards the noise has gone but now it has comeback with a vengeance.
Thank You

ps. Any ideas on what it could be.

Could be a turbo problem, a split pipe somewhere, or even something driven by the auxiliary belt.

You may have better luck asking in the Mk III Technical Section.

Have you had a look at your intercooler for holes or damage?
If you look through your lower grille under the number plate you should be able to see it with a torch, just check for damage.
