02wrx bug

Sounds like it's from the turbo area, like someone blowing a trumpet badly

Ideas anyone?

Cheers

I'll try to record it later and upload it

 

Only trumpet I've heard is when my power steering fluid gets low ?? And gets louder as u accelerate might help

 

Possibly gasket issue probably upipe.

 

Cheers guys

Sounds are hard to explain in words

 

could be a number of things but id check for splits in the boost and vac pipes first

 

Another vote for turbo pipe work, I had a bad clamp on a rubber section of pipe that caused a crazy noise on acceleration.

 

Power steering fluid fine

Now to check pipes

Cheers

 

Worth a try nothing like a cheap fix 👍id also be checking my exhaust gaskets up/down pipes when stone cold so not to burn my hands' a lot easier if running a front mount soon gets hot though . I ate chasing noises drives me crazy

 

Noises! Tell me about it

Tried to upload a sound file with no success it's like a low pitched Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr if you can imagine it

Found the sound

 

 

I have a beard!

 

Just to update on the trumpet /fog horn sound
After checking the pipes over and over removing the I/C a couple of times without finding the fault.
I swapped out the the recirculating dump valve for another one, and all is good in the world
