Hi Everyone
Cars back finally...... but now a hissing noise has developed from turbo area (ENGINE OFF)
Since full engine rebuild and new turbo I have had a hissing noise from around the turbo area of the engine bay (engine off and hot/warm) sounds like steam escaping etc.
Any ideas where to check, pic would be helpful if possible....
Car has RIP KIT fitted... Automatic Wagon RICA'd at 1.2bar (boost can be erratic and fluctuates) sometimes feels / sounds like misfire of full chuff...... spark plugs to blame??
Any help appreciated....
Phill
