2003 2.0 Whining Noise When Accelerating - gazzzer111
When accelerating the car makes a whining noise which starts at about 1500rpm, it only starts about 1-2 minutes after being started and driven. I've recently had a Check engine light on which was diagnosed as a faulty EGR vavle which was replaced but the noise started about 2 weeks after the light came on and is still there now the vavle has been replaced.

Noises are hard to grasp; but maybe a boost-pressure leak?

Any sign of oil-mist staining on any of the intake ducting or the intercooler?

You didn't happen to have an over-anxious mother, or mother-in-law in the car at the time? - It's just my mother used to make a whining noise if she was in the car and I accelerated briskly
