Had a similar problem when I got my 96 Sport - read somewehere it was to do with the cam tensioning pulley so took it to garage. Sure enough, someone had tried to replace the cambelt & stripped the threads on the tensioner pulley.
Might be worth havin someone to look at it mate, fortunately got mine done under warranty!
If you idle the car & rev it, the whistlin increases with the revs & drops back when u let off the gas, thats prob the trouble - my mate also had this on her Tigra so sounds like it might be a common one!
Hope this helps!

Is it a constant noise or just a short one.?I have a C 1.2 SXi (as many ppl on here do) and the standard airbox whistles quite loudly as the throttle is depressed. Its caused by the air sucking through the airbox.
My mates could not believe how loud it was for a standard airbox and filter:boggle:

May apply to the 1.4 too.
