Forester - Weird Noise and CEL on
Hi Folks,
I have a 54 Forester 2.5 Turbo. A few weeks back in started making a funny noise when accelerating. The noise then disappeared but it came back last night along with a check engine light. My first thoughts was that there was a boost leak somewhere and that was the funny noise on acceleration. Today I removed the intercooler to check the Y piece underneath but there doesn't seem to be any leak from it but it was a perished condition. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...n/IMG_2744.jpg Is the Y piece normally wrapped in this stuff for heat protection? I have now removed the stuff so just left with the plastic Y piece, I plan to buy a new piece anyway so didn't mind tearing the stuff off. But the plastic Y piece underneath seems to be in tact with no holes or splits. I have checked all other boost hoses that I can see to check for leaks etc. Does anyone have any idea what the noise may have been? How do I read the ecu fault code (after I replace the Y piece of course)? Thanks Rich |
Thats the way the look normally, i ripped all mine off thinking it was some homemade bodge job but its just insulation.
You know where i am if you want me to hook up laptop to it. Could endoscope your turbo to check blades too |
Fit like Euan?
I see they are supposed to look like that, I have ordered a new silicone one so will fit that back on next week when it arrives. I'm working all weekend otherwise I would've popped down to see you, could manage mid week if your not too busy? Would be good to see what the fault code is Cheers |
Ok I have fault code:
P0011 Camshaft position timing over advanced 1 I have had a look at forum posts so I will check if the timing belt has skipped a tooth (solved this for a lad on Subaru forester . org) Anything else I can be checking? Cheers Rich |
i had look after as i was curious, nae good - poor oil maintanance by previous. theres wee filters in banjo bolts supplying avcs possibly dirty same as turbo oil supply.
|
It is due an oil change and I have oil and a filter waiting to be done.
I will have to investigate the wee filters, read something about them aswell, the joys! |
Update:
I have carried out an oil & filter change. I removed the drivers side bango and couldn't find a filter inside, see pic: http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...n/IMG_2782.jpg Strange. The Engine light has not come on with about 30 mile of mixed driving and the weird sound is not there anymore. The sound was a kind of whoosh whilst accelerating. I will have to put some miles on it to see if the same happens again! Cheers Rich |

The filters are usually contained inside the banjo bolt
