We can hear a noise from the turbocharger, why?
Usually you can hear whistling while accelerating, which is less of a problem than scraping or vibration.
Possible causes of the problem:
- wear of the rotor bearings
- blockage or leakage in the turbocharger delivery pipe
- air leaks in the inlet manifold (seal)
- turbine and rotor damage, due to the entry of external parts: nuts, screws, ring parts, valves, etc.
- resistance (blockage) or leakage in the delivery pipe, behind the compressor
