here comes the techinical stuff. when i apply some pressure to the pad and accelerate i here a noise as if the car is struggling slightly ( i can only really describe it as a wheeze ) lasts for a matter of seconds regardless of gear. she seems to be running well and there is no history of any problems as such. im curious what you guys and gals think 
cheers one and all 1.5 lxi - standard engine |

A rough guess, it may be one of your belts slipping, does it only happen at lower reves ? |

Only another guess, but it sounds like your low-end torque is being effected - is the rubber intake pipe between the filter and throttle body in good condition? What year is your car? Mark |

sorry guys been away for a few days - will check these theories asap then get back to you. year is 1998 mark any chance of a pic of what pipe im looking at??? its worse at low revs. just did a 330 mile trip and it was sooooo annoying !!! 
im just paranoid its going to be the exhaust again as it sounds a bit like air is coming out somewhere :S |

Dai, it's the main big pipe that goes from the air filter to your throttle body - it's the corrogated one with the MAF on it. Mine has perished in between the corrogations. It's the fattest pipe under your bonnet
