Does anyone know why my engine sometimes sounds like its hissing?? its only when i start her up that she does this, doesnt happen all the time just after really hot days it does tho.

hmmm tricky 1,i had this problem also,was something to do with stepper motor and ecu coinciding so had to get it reset on a computer,could be a different fault,brake servo/air locked coolant system,if you take the radiator cap off is it bubbling like mad and wanting to piss out over the top?
