hi all ive got a focus st170 and its developed a hissing noise a few seconds after you change gear and it also does it sometimes just when your diving along as well. it sounds like its coming from the dash but i suspect its on the engine bay side of the bulkhead, could the gearchange thing be related to the noise?? im proper puzzled with it

and also my revs have started to stick aswell ive checked the peddle is not sticking and its fine could this be something to do with the throttle body????

Or long shot turn ur steering full lock as hard as you can see if it makes it then my charlottes fiesta does that makes some strange noise come to think of it so does my focus and the dump valve was just to rule it out
