Whats this noise? Vid attached.
Trying to identify what this noise is. All i can say is that its metal type of rattle.
The heat shield is fully secure. You also hear this noise whilst driving, regardless whether your on boost or not.

I'm not an engine expert by any means (as you're about to find out).
I presume that you can starve the turbo of exhaust ie. have the car running without the turbo powered?
If so, that would prove if it is something to do with the turbo.

Its gives the op an idea of how involved (or not) it is and helps to decide.
Be different if it was a whole morning's work.
Cheers.

On a subie it does take a while give yourself plenty of time especially if studs are old and seized, dependant on tools avail a mornings work would do, if its a relatively new turbo a bit less

I'm struggling to hear what you're talking about, but might be the one speaker on my ipad.
It looks like there's a bolt missing from the heat shield in the vid. My money's on it being the rest of the heat shield not being bolted down. Most likely someone's fitted a decat dp at some time and either snapped or lost a couple of the bolts. There is a shield underneath too which you might need to view from under the car.

I dont know to be honest. i did split it apart from housing to have a nose around. The back blades had like a metal thing that looked like it should have been attached to the turbo housing, that just span around . If thats what you mean.
Sorry for the sh!te description. lol
