Seeping noise from Engine......
Finally hit 120k km. 2001 Lx. I hear a SEEPING air noise coming from the engine when it is cold after I drive away. It lasts for one minute of driving and then goes away. Basically once the temp guage starts moving up, no more noise.
It's got louder over the past three weeks.
Any ideas?
My guess - leaky intake plastic manifold gasket -
as it does not sound harsh enough to be an exhaust leak..

I thought that's just the intake inlet sucking in more air. Listen right at the intake opening and you should hear it. Should go away once the car is warmed up.
