I'm in the process of getting my insite, so far I haven't have any engine warning lights or codes, thanks in advance..

I have dealing with two whistling 871.
One was whistling from loose clamp on rubber hose from intake minifold to air compressor intake.
Second was whistling from loose clamp on venturi to EGR hose.
