Hi
Can someone tell me if a standard 206 gti 180 makes a lot of induction noise -
I can hear air rushing ----- AFTER bliping the throttle and the revs are coming DOWN -
The noise is to the left (drivers side of the engine) so away from the airbox etc. so I am very puzzled
Many thanks in advance.

Do you have a standard airbox or induction kit?

No the standard 180 does not make much noise. The air blower unit for the EGR system (passenger wheel arch) can sometimes make a whining/ whistling noise especially if you've uprated the inlet but an intake noise coming from the drivers side? Sure its not just because you've got the vents on that side so the noise sounds like its coming out from that side?
Have you checked to make sure the breather pipe that comes off the head is fitted securely? Any EML on?

Take the acoustic cover off the head, there's a valve which sits in next to the cam covers (silver in color, pipe comes out the bottom of it), check the plastic clip as that sometimes fails, the pipe can be traced all the way into the passenger wheel arch where it meets the air puller motor for the anti pollution system.

It does have a valve in the arch for the cold air to come in from though (I pressume that was what he means), weather that is called an EGR i dont know.

Yes I meant anit pollution system (Peugeot Service Box calls it EGR even though it does not recirculate the exhaust gas but hey, thats Pug for you.)
The pipework I mentioned has a plastic 'oush to release' tag on it and that is known to break on them, hence it might possibly be causing the air noise.

Oil filler cap, directly left of it at the end of the head, pipe with the blue push and release clip on it underneath the coil pack wiring loom.

You talking about this little lot?
Checked it all seems ok.
Wonder if it could be the manifold or cat/exhaust and just sounds worst from the drivers side

is it when you first start up as could be the cold start airpump behind the n/s/f foglight will run for a couple of mins till the engine warms up then stop

Nope - Its comming from the drivers side (or if your looking at the engine from the front the left side)

Is there a common issue with exhausts leaking on the 206 gti 180 anywhere - car sounds like its blowing somewhere - could it be from the manifold?
