High pitched whistling noise from charger inlet.
High pitched whistling noise from charger inlet.
I closed off the bypassvalve on tick over and it will make the noise then as it starts to build boost slightly, I removed the air filter, noise still there, all the pipework to charger inlet, still there!
Now I'm stumped, anyone else have this problem? Makes the car sound rediculous and is sooo ****** loud!
Any help would be great,

I never removed or moved the rotors so I'm puzzled to how they have moved.... well only one has moved and the gears are still timed up and the shaft hasn't moved either.
O well these things are sent to try us, also had rear discs go on the same outing then my jack burst when I went to jack it up! Wtf! Ha ha
Match and some petrol any one?
