The other day the Solara stared making an odd swishing/sucking noise, which seems to be emanating from the air filter and intake region. The belts are on the opposite side of the engine, I doubt its one of them. Also it cannot be replicated stopped. Only makes noise under load. There aren’t an engine codes at all. I’d appreciate a quick look at the vid and get your opinion on the matter, thanks.

Sounds like a leaky antenna to me. Pretty easy fix.

Exactly. The wats are leaking from the antenna.

Check the ducting  between the airbox and the intake. I would guess there is either a crack in the duct that is sucking air in and makung a funny noise as it pulls air past its edges.
