Turbo Whistle... Possible Fault??

<< < (2/6) > >>

Pullafacial:
Still pulls but not as strong as when the whistle is louder.
Never been in another one so have nothing to compare it too.

Not sure what turbo, is there a way for a simpleton to tell?

Nickyboy:
Do you have the standard GTI (K03) or the 30th anniversary edition (K04) ?

Pullafacial:
Standard Gti so guess K03

Hi guys, convinced myself I have a split DV so as I've only had the car a couple of weeks I'm gonna get it booked in at the garage. My only concern is it's not a main dealer but a general car sales place so hope it's covered!

Just a bit info on the fault, it's definately lacking power and the turbo whistle is really loud.
Also, seems to be worse under hard acceleration as a pose to gentle.

Thanks for your help so far and I'll keep you posted.....
