Bongo Fury

Mine sounds the same spent ages looking for the mystery fan and eventually tracked it down to just induction noise.

Do you hear it from cold? Mine seems to start after 5 mins or so.. hmm.

Not sure its definitely there when its warmed up.

I've only heard the induction noise when i got the seats up poking around, it does have an annoying droning noise from the scoop up front under the bonnet tho kinda like if you open and close your mouth while letting your cheeks fill with air noise i put it down as character wait until the evaporator valve on your carbon canistor starts to show it's age and constantly click click clic click when poodling along now that is annoying

Ah, OK I'll ask what is that for and where is it ? I didn't even know I had one!

The noise is most def the air intake.

TBH its doing my head in!!

Some of you have mentioned that you cannot hear anything in the cab - do your bonnets have sound deadening installed.

Recirculates unburnt fuel thru the canistor all to do with the egr it's under your passenger side

the big round thing is the canistor the valve is the electrical jobby at the side of, sorry im not clever enough to draW lines around it, mine has clicked away from the day i got it, alot of cars do it only difference is you are sat on it so when the passenger window is open it's annoying, usually they are up front under the bonnet so not usually notice by joe average

Wait you'll know when it does I know that the mx5 crew disconnect thiers when they go, it still works when clicking just showing it's age thats all, i did disconnect mine at some point for a week but ended up reconnecting it, i just live with it now, i refuse to pay £70 quid for a solanoid untill it really needs it
