yeh cylinder , its easy providin u can get a tester kit, remove spark splugs, screw tester into 1st chamber, food flat on accelerator and turn over engine, take reading, they shiuld all be simular. also check all ur breathers, make sure they are ok, and also check oil, see if its using any, check water tank for any oil. do all simple checks first. clean iacv.

when warm the hose becomes harder to squeeze but not totaly solid.dont seem to be loosing any oil or water
checked all hoses etc and one of the fmic tubes had come loose going to double clip it.
just noticed a faint rattle more like a ticking when you gentle blip the throttle it speeds up with it and its not going away when cars warm either.sounds coming from turbo corner.

Isit like a ringing noise/whining noise? Possibly could be that the shaft on the turbo has play. Which turbo do you have?
