whooshing noise

hi
pulled off the motorway yesterday in my 2000 td5 defender after about 20 mins of motorway driving. pulled out of the junction with a loud whooshing noise coming from the engine bay. it does it when you rev the engine so nothing to do with the drive train. it sounds like its the fan turning far to fast. has anyone else experienced it cheers jack

interesting. but it cant be that either havnt got any speakers yet haha. i think it might be a warped exhaust manifold

Had the same thing with my disco it was the egr blanking plate leaking.

My 2000 110 did a major 'turbine' woosh, the viscous fan was seized/locked - esp pulling off in first. New unit fixed it - worth a look, see if fan rotates under finger pressure (engine off, cold and keys out of ignition......). if solid then nadged? good luck, A

problem solved all seize up ordered new one

probably a warped manifold.

Right fitted new viscous fan today and noise is still there. Is there another bearing on the shaft the fan sits on ????
