Hearing a whistling when driving which I assume is the turbo - only whistles at higher revs. Something to be concerned about?


Check all your boost hoses and intercooler for splits.

Yes. Each time the ignition is cycled on/engine start/off, the EGR valve goes through a self clean cycle, sounds like a small hacksaw for a couple of seconds.

Humm, I don't think it is doing that at the moment :(
