Whistling turbo problem cancelled for lack of interest
Hi all,
The problem is over, according to the rest of the world; I'm not so sure.
After arguing with the rebuilder about how he could ship 2 defective turbos,
blah, blah, blah, I decided to take it to the Audi garage that does the work
that I don't want to do etc. Their "turbo expert" listened, looked,
tweaked, checked vacuum and pressure lines, and we both listened. The
problem went away. I don't know why; perhaps as some suggested it was a
running in noise that disappeared when the run in was completed. I still
believe there's a problem, but I'm willing to drive it 'til it falls on its
knees again. I believe that the turbo will fail prematurely.
Thanks for your help and advice; for now I'm declaring it a non event.
Cheers!
