Anyone know what this noise is ?



Steering rack was replaced yesterday but didn't seem right when driving away from the garage. Steering still felt stiff at time and a bit lumpy. Anyway , I've done about 6 miles in it since then and just as I was coming to the end of my journey I could hear a noise like a Hoover , I could hear it while driving and the video is obviously when it's stationary. The sound is a lot louder than it appears in the video and is pretty much identical to a Hoover noise.

Garage seems to think it could be the egr valve sticking half way open.

If the EGR valve is sticking it will show up as a DTC in a diagnostic scan.

Would the EML light up or would it just show as an error when scanned ? We decided not to bother doing anything about it as my new car is arriving soon and after just spending £550 on a new steering rack I don't want to spend anymore on it.
