Is my fuel and or oil pump on the way out?
My turbo is whining when it spools up and down.
I noticed it get worse when i removed my bonnet lining as it was falling apart. Obviously this will make everything louder. It seems that it gets worse when i throw the car into the first corner on a morning and then settles down when it hits the motorway. I don't get any blue smoke when i start the car or put my foot down. If it is your opinion that its the fuel/oil pump. What do you recommend, Walbro and? What is the labour time on fitting the parts? When they're fitted will anything else need to be changed? Thanks in advance. |
Tbh i doubt its either if your oil pump was the cause i would have thought the engine would have gone and the fuel pump wont cause it.

Change your oil grade - sounds too thick when cold
Or its your oil pick up pipe |
What turbo do you have it might be the filter blocking which is not uncommon.
|
on the other hand, there may be nothing wrong at all! has the problem got worse? monitor it, and if it gets worse, you know something is wrong!!

It's a standard turbo for a v4 Sti.
I probably am worrying about nothing but thanks for your comments. I think to be on the safe side I'm going to get an upgraded oil pump on my service. Any suggestions? |
A.p.i offer a modified oil pump on exchange for your old one and they are well priced too.
