whistling

noticed yesterday that i can here a whistle from the engine, rises with the revs and can even hear it on start up. if i open the window its rather loud and when lifting off i get more like a short blast of air sound. Does sound like turbo whistle but ive never heard it this loud before.

performance is ok and no smoke noticeable

Normal or impending doom?

There was a post round here somewhere about stuck turbo actuator causing this type of noise, but cant find it .

Am pretty sure it was accompanied by a ' reduced performance' message tho.. so if your car's not complaining suspect it is nothing serious

D4's are usually pretty good at throwing up errors associated with turbo

Cheers Ian
