Is it not the turbo?

Mine dose it all the time....more if you have just taken you foot off the loud pedal :)

Have you never had a TDi go past you when walking down the street?

I can hear this noise before the car goes past me :D

Its the turbo, mine does it all the time. First heard it when the window was down. Sounds a bit like a quite dump valve.

i can hear it with the windows shut and it happens especially when the accelerator is lightly feathered
