I got a question, I am getting a weird whistle coming from somewhere when i floor the gas pedal, it sounds like its coming out of the exhaust pipe, but there is no hole there, and its not a rumble, someone told me to look in the oil pan, but i have no way of lifting the car up...this is possible considering that I'm missing oil once in a while....so quite possibly...lemme know if you have any ideas of what it can be..

Mine does the same thing sometimes. It has actually been mistaken for a turbo on several occasions.

that's the sound of air flowing through the air filter while at wide open throttle

If you don't see any spots where you've been parked, then it is probably burning off. Do you see any smoke when you start the car or while driving? |

blue smoke always is burning oil.
valve seals?? nothing you can do about it really unless you want to rebuild your motor. just deal and keep topping her up

I believe that they can be replaced without removing the head |
