Strange resonance coming on boost...?
AJP:
I'd love to know what's causing it. I can see it becoming irritating!!
Beej:
It does irritate me a little, especially if I am trying to 'make progress' rather than booting it without people at the side of the road, or the car next to me noticing too much!
GTIEagles:
It's definitely worth checking your intercooler hoses. My drivers side hose was weeping oil slightly on both ends. Managed to source genuine o rings on eBay for a tenner. Easy to fit. I couldn't really notice any difference after but it must have been slightly loosing boost as it was weeping.
Beej:
Mine are good, as I thought it too may have been a leak
AJP:
Yeah got to say my car pulls well and the power delivery is nice and smooth.
It had a good checkup as well as the new dv, pcv and cam follower when it was in at Statller last week, so I'd have thought they'd have picked up on any issues with the hoses/connectors.
Not saying it's impossible that I've got a boost leak, just seems odd that a few people are hearing this same noise.
