if its a tapping noise coming from you engine

run the engine and hold the revs at 2000 for 5 mins as the tappets bleed themself at 2000 no higher no lower 8)

power steering can make a whirring noise, because of the strain that is put on them! could it maybe be this? (if u have power steering)

this is a normal noise!
