04 986 Whistling after coolant fill
I have a 2004 boxster base and I had the water pump replaced about a month ago. After getting the car from the shop I noticed that when I would start the car there was a significant whistle coming from the engine compartment. I tried to vent the system using the vent by the coolant cap. Is there something else I should be looking at?

If the whistling happens on a cold start it is the secondary air injection pump, SAI. It is a pollution control device that is on for a short period as the car warms up.
