Odd whistling sound

Hey all,

After a bit of advice - my Supe is making a bit of a strange noise at low revs. Its kind of a whistling sound - it sounds a bit like if you blow into a half empty bottle of beer (my powers of description are second to none!)

When I get going, it seems to stop. Could it be the SMIC? I had a look at it a while back and it didn't look in too bad a condition but it does seem to be coming from that area.

Any ideas?

My car used to do this, not last winter but the one before. At low revs I had the bottle blowing sound on cold days for the first few miles, then it would stop. Strangely I didn't get it this winter - maybe it fixed itself?

 

Through reading threads on here I suspect it is something to do with the BOV.
