Talking Picked it up on Friday!

Black 04 WRX, quality car, loving it!

Quick question though (probably a daft one), every 45 seconds or so I hear a funny noise, I can't work out if it is the air intake (most likely) or a slipping belt, sounds like it could be either, any idea? Take it this is common? It sounds louder when the Air-Con is on for some reason.

Cheers.

Cheers pal, i'll try it later with the air con off to double check. Never heard the noise before in any air-conned cars, just seems strange.

I had a Focus St170 which did the exact same, I think it was every 50 secs or so when the air con is turned on, turned out it wa sthe air con pump annd nothing to worry about.
