ea82t turbo bad noise
ea82t turbo bad noise
hey guys, driving my ea82t wagon today and noticed the turbo is making a really strange type of whistle when it starts boosting (when the turbo spins faster) through all the rev range.....
its like more of a wine than the normal whistle
i have a pod filter and 2.5" exhaust on with standard everything else...
had a quick look at all the vaccume lines and they seem to be alright but i did notice the center of the turbo (bearing part) was a little oily underneath....
im leaning towards no oil getting to turbo so its got a dry bearing
any help would be great
cheers
