Decided I'm just going to take it to a tuning garage near me who has dealt with loads of A3 8P's as this is way over my head. I did speak to the bloke on the phone and enquired about changing it for a new Hybrid Turbo and he advised that I would need to fit an intercooler and induction kit with a different down pipe? :S, No idea if that's just his recommendation or if the Hybrid Turbo's require all that

Well I mean driving under acceleration, I don't hear it if I'm cruising at 30 only when accelerating between gears Or does it still sound faulty ?

Ughh was really praying I don't was just after pointers on where to look and what to look for so I guess the car will be on stands this weekend while I give it a once over, In terms of whistle Im gonna sound dumb because it's the first turbo car I've had and it sounds like a turbo with a dump valve if that helps, I can only really hear the turbo when driving tho

Hello So first time owning a diesel let alone an A3 I have a few issues I've noticed since buying the car Going on the motorway doing about 65mph in 6th gear then under acceleration to 70mph the car decides to jump into limp mode this has happened a few times and then the EML come on so plugged a generic obd in an was presented with p0234 turbo overboost. I clear the limp mode by simply switching off an back on So far I have tried revive turbo which did in fact clear the issue for a day, I've also noticed once the car is sluggish when warmed up Any suggestions as I know mine doesn't have the nut solenoid but the vacuum box at the top of the engine bay but unsure how to diagnose Any suggestions
