surely going or gone one wouldnt pull same or hear it the same ?
Check the pipes sorry for being stupid i duno where it is lol i dont know about these things
Follow the pipe from the airbox you will reach the turbo, then pipe goes from turbo into engine. Remove the pipe and check for oil in them. (big black plastic pipe)

Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 3:01 pm ---- Could have a leak that would make a noise, but checking the pipes for oil is a good place to start, oil in the pipes might give you a good indication turbo maybe on its way out.
#19: Re: how can you tell when turbo is going ? Author: eddrj, Location: BerkshirePosted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 3:03 pm ---- holy s**t thinking bout it when i changed the whole airbox that big pipe at bottom did have a split in it lol is that all it is ? how hard are these to change ? cheap job ?
#20: Re: how can you tell when turbo is going ? Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 3:07 pm ---- A split pipe would make a noise, I know it would as mine currently has a split in it now and makes a racket.
Mines cracked just befor turbo.
Take a look and if you can tape it up see if it helps. Get a new pipe when you can.

#23: Re: how can you tell when turbo is going ? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 3:12 pm ---- split pipe gives more of a rasp then a whine, split will make a noise though usually
#24: Re: how can you tell when turbo is going ? Author: eddrj, Location: BerkshirePosted: Mon Feb 14, 2011 3:14 pm ---- ok cool cheers mate. yeah does sound tha same
