Thanks for the feed back guys.

Someone had mentioned the alternator but the noise doesn't always begin at start up. There seems to be no consistency to noise, the noise will start sitting idle or while driving.

I think the burst pipe(s) of some kind may be the issue, although at times it does sound like more than one whistle. You know like 2 or 3 at slightly different times. It's sound like wind blowing thru something.

I'll try and have a look for cracked pipes, although I'm night shift all week end, and let you guys know how I get on.

Once again thanks very much the advice.
