    Engine flutter changing up gears

    Hello

    I've recently purchased a 2013 manual Amarok and I've noticed that when changing up gears that there is a flutter sound from the engine when I lift my foot off the accelerator to change gear. I'm thinking that it might be a turbo noise but don't know. It's not very loud but the higher the revs the more noticable it is. Do others experience this? Is it normal?

    Cheers

    As in the sound a turbo makes from the blow off valve?

      Could be a belt tensioner or alternator bearing....
