Hi about 6 months ago I bought a 2006 Mazda 6 v6 with a 5-speed manual. (180k miles)
A day after I purchased the vehicle a motor mount snapped while driving and it pulled a radiator hose with it. I got the vehicle towed and a shop fixed the hose and the mount was fixed. It drives great now and looks great.
Immediately after the repairs though it makes this loud whistling/ whining coming from the engine bay when I accelerate
-It only does it while driving
-doesn't do it when revving in neutral
- medium to hard throttle only
-does it with ac on and off
-the car has no lack of power everything works and feels great.
-pinhole exhaust leak at the flange right before the catalytic converter (unsure if that could cause such a loud noise).
Any help, recommendations, or ways to diagnose the issue would be greatly appreciated!
