Hi All,
I have a 1999 LX470 with about 170k. For a while now I’ve been having a loud engine whine when the car is cold, and it’s far worse when it is cold outside. The noise eventually goes away when the car is warm but that can take anywhere between 2-10 minutes depending on the temperature. Sounds like it’s coming from the front of the motor. I’m thinking maybe power steering pump or water pump? Any ideas would be helpful!
