Sound coming from under center console/

[Kierab]

got a 1996 VS, and there is a sort of hissing sound when i put my foot on the accelerator, really annoying me

just hoping its not the gearbox or something

any suggestions, stupid or anything. let me know

becasue im sick of having to drive with music up loud to drown the hiss

cheers =]

It could be a exhaust leak from one of the cat convertor gaskets or even a melted cat convertor.

[Kierab]

yea i might but it on the ramps and av a good look, cheers

any other suggestions

Check the colour of the trans oil...see if it's red or brown...if brown it could be a slipping transmission, although first check would have to be a leaky exhaust.

Vacuum hose under the dash for the vent controls?

vacum leak throttle body to air control take engine covers off and check all vacum piping near back of motor and around the throtle body else unless youve got auto oil pissing out is probs a leak or a slippind band if is band gear changes would be really shoddy by now

love the noise canceling system TURN THE RADIO UP
