It seems to be the throttle

[sc00ter18]

Ok, so after checking and checking and giving gas and listening

it seems as tho the noise is coming from the throttle body.

Did any one ever hear a squeaking noise from the throttle area??

update

my mechanic told me it is coming from the crank case. its a vacuum in the crank case or some gibarish like that

(this is what he did to test it ... he removed the dip stick an the oil cap , noise went away! put back the dip stick and put back the oil cap and the noise came back)

Oil separator could be failing. I had one that made a squeal noise... open the oil fill cap and see if the noise disappears.

[sc00ter18]

yes, when oil feel cap the is off the noise is gone.

Replace the separator and all will be well.

Update:

Oil Separator was replaced over the weekend. and throttle body cleaned.

the bottom pipe ( that accordion looking pipe) did not brake during removal of AOS and was not replaced

The good news - the noise is gone.

The bad news - The car still smokes a bit at start up.......i picked it up today and thought it will go away after i drive it for a few minutes and yes the smoke went away , but a few hours later when i took it for an other drive it smoked at start up once again,

What else could cause this??

2000 boxter 2.7 57k

I would drive it more or wait a couple more days, prolly would go away.

p.s if any one wants to have this for future reference.

Remove and replace of AOS and cleaning of throttle body cost me 311$

After replacing the AOS it may take hundreds of miles for the smoke to stop. It did for me.
