Whistling noise and Emission Workshop?

[MitchelB]

I have a 2008 seat leon 1.9TDI 60,000 miles, just over a week ago i noticed a sucking/whistling noise coming from the passenger side top air blower. and then yesterday whilst driving the engine management light came on and then it said "emission workshop" on the dash, just wondering if maybe the sucking/whistling noise is linked with the emission workshop?

Another thing is just over 6 months ago the engine shot a piston into the engine head and destroyed the engine completely, so after a full engine rebuild here i am with another problem with the car. Ever since the engine blew up i have pretty much not trusted the car at all, i always think it is going to break on me AGAIN! so would either of these problems cause alot of damage if still driven? as i havent had chance to get it into a garage, and i have got to drive to work tomorrow but dont want to be driving the car if it will cause damage.

Also when i come to sell the car would people be put off by the fact it has engine rebuild? it was one of the weak BXE engines.

Took car into garage and computer said it was air mass meter. Which would explain to sucking noise through the air blowers.

Did the maf sensor cure your problems?

It turned out the booster pipe had come loose as the clips holding it on had snapped off, hence why I could hear the sucking noise as it was just sucking in air from everywhere. that would be why it came under air mass meter as error code

Where are the booster pipes located?

Did you have any other mechanical problems? Car going limp mode, turbo lag, black smoke?

Or did your car drive normal

Not entirely sure where it is located, but they did say it was basically just hanging there.

And nope I didn't notice any difference with the way the car drove

Anyone else know the location of the booster pipe?
