guten tag everyone

got funny whistling sound in the engine when I turn it off in my bloody
Nissan Pooftfinder. Could that be Toyota blowing whistle on Nissan ??? :-)
 seriously, what could that be? Thanks in advance for any comments.

sounds like a vacuum hose leaking
check the brake booster hoses and any other hoses that you can find
connected to the manifold vacuum system(or vacuum pump if it's a diesel)

when you turn it off try pressing the brake pedal a few times, if it
changes the whistling noise then it's a vacuum leak

Could also be the a/c receiver equalising. Next time you are coming
home, switch the a/c off a few minutes before hand and see if the noise
is still there.
