 Citroen Berlingo Multispace II - 13 1.6 Turbo Whistle - Bromptonaut
The Berlingo was left idle on the drive for around a fortnight as we went to Scotland on holiday using my Fabia. I drove it yesterday for the first time since we returned and was immediately aware of whistling noise sounding like a jet engine spooling up/down as engine speed varied. Not loud or intrusive but definitely present and something that's not been there before.

Did about five miles to the caravan storage left it for half an hour while checking the 'van and sorting out some post service attention it needs. Returned home via Tesco. In latter stages the whistle had lessened and by the time I left Tesco disappeared.

Been out in it again this morning and all normal.

Mrs B had driven it on Thursday/Friday and says she heard nothing but she's got no ear for the mechanical.

It's a 1.6 HDi 115 so the rather less doomed 8 valve version of the diesel of doom. Owned since new and serviced on the dot with right oil etc. Now on approx

Is it likely to be just a consequence of lack of use?
