when i start my car from cold, it sounds like its blowing like mad, then when i pull off and accelerate, it sounds like its fluttering, i cant find it blowing on the exhaust system, and it was warm, so i was thinking it maybe the turbo to downpipe gasket!?

anyone got the part number please?

but someone mentioned to me that when his turbo bearing was on its way out it did the same then went quiet when it was warm. and my car doesnt seem to perform like it used to!?

maybe you could shed the light on this for me? anyone?

help appreciated! thanx

Sounds like the exact same problem i have mate, I had my k03s fitted at the weekend and they re-sealed all the joints, and what sounded like a bad blow has gone, dont suppose it sounds abit like a rattle from the centre section aswell does it? as i think that could be either the baffles going or abit of exhaust paste caught up in there?

no it aint been standing, its used everyday!

no i cant hear no rattle either, but i was planning on just putting a turbo gasket on and seeing if that sorts it?
