Sounds like bad turbo but want to know more and other people’s opinions before I go spending😂

Could it be a boost leak? Might be worth getting a diagnostic check to see if there are any fault codes 

Cheers for the reply, No fault codes showing whatsoever?

Have you checked the boost hoses for leaks and splits a real give away is the oily crud around the leak, this wont throw up a code.

We did have a check for boost leaks as we had removed all of the induction ect the other day to do clutch and fly wheel and didn’t notice anything significant but I shall double check. It’s been happening for a while but it’s only become more significant since doing the clutch and flywheel. 

It does have the standard airbox I believe and it hasn’t been remapped or modified apart from aftermarket wheels I’ve gone through and through stages with this car, first I was told it was down to a timing error as I had a code for crank correlation which I had done ended up being timing pins. £150 including labour Went in again for a dpf regen as I suspected it was the cause for the rough idle and juddering at a stand still. Had the dpf regen done still nothing changed. £150 including labour. Clutch and flywheel then went on it a couple weeks later £650 including labour which I had done on Saturday but still the problem persists with a rough idle just above one slightly and the noise is coming from the turbo area. It only happens every so often but has begun to become more severe. Garage seems to think turbo is on way out but I’ve had advise that it isn’t turbo and something related to the turbo? Many thanks for replying to me mate👌

This sounds like my 16 Passat 2.0 TDI, just normal sounding. 

Mine has a more metallic sound, I'll get a recording, but I think it's due to the rev limiter and the fact the car isn't moving.

Here is a naff vid of my Passat, it had just done a regen but the metallic turbo noise can be heard.

 

 

Yeah it is very similar, I had took mine in to a garage in multiple occasions due to having idle issues ended up changing loads and they did say it’s totally normal so I just guess it’s normal😂 but the last time I took it to a garage due to the issues they did mention that they had inspected most common causes to my problems and tested them and nothing was faulting and they said to just monitor it and carry on as usual but it doesn’t happen as often since they inspected it so my guess is they did something they didn’t even realise to fix it😂bmind my turbo has since started to whistle/whine😂
