Hi
My GTII 1992 Scirocco is making a hissing noise when running. My guess is that it's something to do with the water pump or fan belt region. it is not a slipping fan belt.
does anyone recognise this sound?

How good are you at onomatopaea? :o)
Possibly an air leak (servo gone? disconnected vacuum hose? hole in a pipe?) If it's coming from the fan belt area, maybe a fan or timing belt running on its casing somewhere.
Also sprach "Carl Bowman" :-
You filthy swine - that's an outrageous suggestion.
:o)
too much detail. I'd second the dead brake servo/leaky induction suggestion. Use a piece of tubing with one end in your ear and try to locate the source of the hissing.
good idea. i'll see if i can find a piece of tubing. cheers
