So since about 1 month my car has been making kind of like a jet turbine sound when accelerating under vacuum (when I'm boosting it seems like the sound was getting a little away) I thought it was a boost leak but everything was fine, no leaking till 14-15 psi (stock bpv probably and abs piping is ****)
Yesterday I started the car and it made a horrible noise. My friends says it sounds like a duck when I'm pushing throttle. This sound happenened in the beginning when the engine had a high load. What I mean by this is whenever I shift in low rpm (1500 to 2500) when the engine has a hard time accelerating this is when it makes the loudest noise. Now it will make a loud noise everytime. The noise seem to almost go away when the engine gets hot.
Noise is really loud when the engine is cold
So here is a list of what's wrong :
- Car is boosting normally to 7psi, but wont hold it very long and will go down to 4psi before I have to change gear (I don't know if this is normal but it is just a statement)
- Whenever I'm accelerating under 0 vaccum, I'm at something like -3 or -4 instead of the usual 0.
- My car will not go to it's usual 20 vaccum on the highway when giving little gas. It is like at 10 instead.
My thoughts are on a turbo gasket or something like that. Noise is really coming from the turbo/manifold part, front end of my engine bay.
People told me to check my manifold, and it's not cracked at all.
I'll look forward into lifting my car this week-end and check my turbo, if I find nothing i'll take it for a repair.
