Swooshing sound MY99 turbo
Hi guys, my MY99 turbo is making a swooshing sound at around 2000 revs when I accelerate, I'm only doing about 20 to 30 mph at the time and to be honest its getting a bit embarrassing.Any ideas what it could be?.

Um, no
I know the dump valve makes a good swoosh noise but thats when you lift off not accelerate.I probably being a bit thick but this is my first scoob.
And its not the turbo either, turbo kicks at about 3000.

Swooshing noises aside how's scooby ownership treating you? Think I saw you in Cambridge once a while back, but was driving the Mrs' Corsa around so you wouldn't have seen me lol

Hi mate, I see, spying on other scoob owners in you mrs Corsa very sneaky. I'm loving me scoob, don't think ill ever get enough of that sweet burble.
This bloomin swooshing noise on the other hand is driving me nuts I think there's something wrong with the exhaust somewhere its definitely not the turbo or dump valve.
Hows the new motor going? and why you driving your mrs Corsa? you haven't broken your new scoob already!?.

Loving mine equally as much, first car I've had where I'd rather drive with the stereo turned off
If you want a second opinion on the swoooooosh I'd be happy to have listen sometime - I also have a tame mechanic who might come in useful
Mrs hasn''t been driving long so we share the driving in her car - naturally she isn't allowed near the scoob!!
