Mr. body massage machine GOOO. lol okay sorry, well i have been hearin some strange things with my turbo lately. its a turbonetics hybrid. on a 87 t2 and a S5 hotside. well lately i have been hearing like a rattle/ rasp noise while decelerating IN GEAR. it is more dominant while in higher RPM. does anyone else have this problem or noise?? i am almost 100% certain that its the turbo, but it doesnt do it 100% of the time. i checked for shaft play. there is a VERY small amount of side to side, and NO back and forth. in addition to that, i noticed some oil in the intake duct. i know a little is normal due to the fact that its non ball bearing right?

also, my BOV has been getting more and more silent as of late, and there is a wee bit of stumbling under boost. afrs are ok, but i did notice a hair line crack in a hose. ill get it replaced asap.

all input is welcome!!!

thanks!!!!

what?

does it make the sound when you rev the engine in neutral? If not, its probably driveline related.

PS - this title is ******* retarded. What were you thinking?

No ****, your not getting responses because it looks like some perverted SPAM thread.

Thread title fixed.

Are you sure the noise isn't in the drivetrain?

hahaha yeah. i like retarded titles though. but, its when im IN gear that i hear the noise and when i rev the engine from the engine compartment, i have to rev it really high but i CAN slightly hear it comming directly from the area of the turbo... just seems weird and not normal.
