loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014
Recently I have noticed my turbo is very very loud when on boost now I've checked all the intercollegiate piping and there doesn't seem to be any splits or rips or gaps but I've also gone from running 12 psi to 10 psi is the turbo on its way out or is it worth checking the pipes again ? Other than the noise and loss if psi it still pulls and drives well and no horrible colours coming out of the exhaust
RE: loud turbo whistle - Danny2009 - 25-01-2014
probably just a boost leak mate put fairy liquid and water on the joins and see if it bubbles
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014
Yeah will have another look when it's dry
RE: loud turbo whistle - Danny2009 - 25-01-2014
Does it sound like a whistle or a whining noise?
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014
I can only describe it as it sounds like a truck/lorry turbo spooling up
RE: loud turbo whistle - Tom - 25-01-2014
Does it sound like a siren?
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014
Not quite just sounds like a fook off huge turbo spooling
RE: loud turbo whistle - Danny2009 - 25-01-2014

Just sounds like the turbo did before just really loud I guess is the best I can describe it, I'm assuming if the trunk is shagged itl be sperting smoke and all sorts ??
RE: loud turbo whistle - Piggy - 25-01-2014
12psi is less then stock, now at 10psi....
sounds like a leak getting worse.
Even when my kkk was on its way out, it screamed, it was still holding 24psi strong
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014
Thought standard they are between 10 and 14 ?
RE: loud turbo whistle - Danny2009 - 25-01-2014
standard is 13psi or maybe 14 cant remember what one.
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 25-01-2014

should be around 14psi standard, but I'm saying even a knackered turbo thats screaming like a pig should hold boost....and that was my example.

Thread moved to the correction section. The thread is for general banter and this is a HDI engine related issue.

Hi mate. Do you let your engine idle for a couple of mins after stopping? All turbos spin a lot faster after use,when you switch off engine it`s still spinning with no oil circulating, need I say no more. So if and when you fit a new one, let it idle for two mins, thought this would help you.
RE: loud turbo whistle - Poodle - 21-02-2014
Lol that kind of solution is for the retards who rag it all the way to the front door then switch it off, and they tend to be beyond help.
The issue isn't that the turbo is still spinning (it's driven by exhaust gas, if the engines not running its got no drive 
). It's that the turbo is red hot and there's no oil flow, so any oil left in the cartridge just gets cooked. Besides, it's not Danny's turbo that's the problem anyway lol.
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 21-02-2014
It's still driving and pulling fine I've lost 2psi and its not a boost leak other than that I'm just waiting for if to go tbh and replace it
RE: loud turbo whistle - Poodle - 21-02-2014
A word of warning, if it goes on the inlet side it will run away on the oil and blow your engine if you don't catch it sharpish.
RE: loud turbo whistle - ADV_93 - 21-02-2014
Boost leaks would be indicated with smoke out of the exhaust (black) as the fuel isn't being burned properly.
Sounds like the turbo is on its way out, they scream like mad when they're about to break. Could be losing psi inside the turbo
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 21-02-2014
Tbh I haven't checked the joins to the actual turbo so could be a boost leak there
just thought of that
RE: loud turbo whistle - Dean - 21-02-2014
Check for boost leaks on every possible join, my GT15 still holds 1.5 bar, because i'm a idiot
well past its efficiency range. Still going strong for now... touch wood.
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 21-02-2014
Yeah when j can get underneath it ill have a gander :-)
RE: loud turbo whistle - pro_steve - 21-02-2014
Check the oulet of the turbo and any places where your turbo pipes could be rubbing. Also worth checking the inlet pipes after the MAF, are these connected properly? This would make it sound like a tractor and put you down on power if the MAF wasn't reading any air flow. Just a thought...
loud turbo whistle - Jukie88 - 21-02-2014
I haven't got a maf at the mo
took it off is its failed
