I can hear the turbo spinning after turning the car off even though I idle it for a min or 2. The turbo core was replaced a while ago and the housing and core were inspected during turbo mod and no issues at the time.Ive just bought a new fuel filter and will fit shortly as I never replaced it when changing fuel pump and injectors. Why does the sound dissapear after it warms up for a few mins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only worry if the sound changes Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check all the manifold bolts and where the turbo bolts to the manifold. Could be lots of things but you have to start somewhere and discount things as you go and narrow it down to a specific area.

After correcting the issue and allot of degreasing the belt wouldsqueek sometimes. Only reason I mention this is I had someone around to have a listen and that's what they believe itcould be.
