My 12v does this passed 5krpm, which doesn't happen often.

If I recall, this is normal

at high revs? In my old 1.4 8v, once it hit around 5k revs it would start to whine, as if it was turbo/super charged. It would do it every time though, but it always checked out in services, just assumed it was normal .
