Excessively loud whistle
Hey guys,
I'm not new to golfs in fact I've had mine for over a year and have had my romp around in the vwgolf forums.
I come to you with a really annoying problem.
So i have the 2.0tdi mk6 standard etc as you would expect.
It has been tuned to have 103kw and 390nm torque at the wheels.
While driving through the national park down south a month or so back something happened car kinda freaked out and it developed an excessively loud whistle sound kinda sounds like a vacuum cleaner on high. this happens when accelerating at around 1800rpm to about 3100rpm and it does get really loud, my mate likened it to a supercharger when i drove past his house and he was waiting for me to pick him up. my gf could clearly hear it from inside her golf tdi two lanes over with the windows closed and the music up.
My mechanic cant figure it out he said he checked over all the hoses and connections etc, hes done a dpf flush so the exhaust is all clear but still the sound is still there.
if it helps it doesnt do it when the engine is cold, only starts when the engine has warmed up and progressively gets worse. No loss in power though it seems to use more fuel than usual, as i was getting roughly 730ish km to a tank now i get about 550ish...
Yes i know its not the normal turbo boost sound so don't bother asking this is completely different its kinda like the boost sound on steroids or like a vacuum cleaner on max power.
Cheers,
Adam
