Are you sure that its in the turbo. Sounds like the cam belt tensioner.  :smiley:

cuprak1:
im only making assumtions as to where the noise is coming from exactly because it seems to happen after 2.5k when turb spools and the noise decreases when i let off, ill get it looked at

john_o:
loose heat shield that wedges against something when you lift off?

cuprak1:
noise still there :( goes away when i fill up with fuel most times...

My k04 is making a jingling sound when spooling almost like blades are hitting the side ever so slightly..

any ideas what it could be, cars only done 20k and  on stage 2+

Bit of a thread resurrection  :ashamed: but I get exactly this (just audible to me) after a K03 to K04 conversion...I guess it is just a quirk of the K04. Glad I found this thread and that I'm not the only one as I was a bit concerned.
