I started a thread asking the same question , i've still got the problem and its bugging the shat out of me. were is the throttle adjustment screw ?
I see the idle set screw , but unsure where the other one is.

 

do you have an intake on your car? if so its just, sucking air in through the filter

 

i always loved the whistle of honda motors. does it bug you guys that much? 0.o

 

i dont know what a throttel adjustment screw is .. but the idle screw will do that if its in too far. happend to me.

 

The whistling is more then likely your intake, I can take a pic showing where the idle set screw is. Hold on guys, give me 2 minutes.

 

Hey guys, here you go.

Idle screw:



I can almost guarantee that's not whats causing it.

 

honda's just do that at about... 33% throttle i think it was(dont remember i checked it with data logging.)

nothing is adjustd wrong. that i am aware of. my girlfriend has a 2000 civic with an intake. nothing has ever been touched before. it has always whistled since the intake was installed.

i think the idle bolt is what causes the whistle.... or its the other pasage way in the... uuhhh looking in through TB there is a pasage way to the left i beleive. the angle of the pasage might cause a whistle.

same thing here, mine always did that to. thats why i took off my intake and but the stock one back on. don't touch the idle screw of your gonna screw up base idle

 

haha 2 threads in a week on this ****...

 

2 threads? lol. gotta love it. and i dont see what is so wrong. it whistles.... and? i like it. it makes me happy. lmao

 

If you have any aftermarket intake, thats more than likely the problem... I noticed it when I first installed mine... Its the sound of the air moving over the hole that goes to the valve cover...

 

idle screw was my problem it was in too far i backed it out a bit and presto whistle gone

 

i made a post about this long ago...

its the turbo..


no seriously its no big deal,,its either the idle adjustment screw or the intake system,,and with most aftermarket intakes you're going to get the whislte..but at the same i here these new stock cars do it all the time..like my neighbors 03 camry 4 cylinder does all the time,,and you can hear the throttle whistkle right when she turns off..

 

I don't mind the noise, but I would like to know that makes it.

I have had this noise with both my stock intake and my ram air. So I would say that it is not the intake that makes the noise.

Could it be something with the engine that makes the whistle? I have never heard the whistle on my brother B16 with an aftermarket intake, but my A6 does. What engine is everyone with the whitsle running?


I only get the whistle if I'm crusing and then accelerate hard.
