    "Twittering"

    Guys - can anyone advise...

    My VR4 has started making a "twittering" noise - it's worst when cold but doesn't completely disappear even when fully warmed up. Any idea what this is, and possible solutions?

    Many thanks in advance,

    Errr... sounds like a bunch of crickets chirping away. Pretty sure it's engine rather than power steering...

    I know what you mean.... like a bird chirping. Auxiliary belts or power steering tensioner or a combination of both would be my guess. Nick and the gang will be able to tell you what it is so MAKE TIME!!!
