joffa1 Member 162 Member For: 7y 9m 20d Posted 21/02/22 03:25 AM Author Share Posted 21/02/22 03:25 AM So big thread dig but surprise surprise my car sounds like a tractor again just like you guys said it would. So I’m thinking this time as it’s most likely the same problem I will have a go at doing it myself. Is this the problem part that cracks and these the problem bolts?

Get in there and see what's loose.

joffa1 Member 162 Member For: 7y 9m 20d Posted 21/02/22 04:02 AM Author Share Posted 21/02/22 04:02 AM Yeah we went through all this last time it happened. If you read back it’s apparently related to cracked turbine housing so just trying to narrow down again where I’m looking exactly and what does and doesn’t have to be removed.

joffa1 Member 162 Member For: 7y 9m 20d Posted 21/02/22 05:26 AM Author Share Posted 21/02/22 05:26 AM Will do but I’m almost positive it’s exact same problem as last time. Thing is I had Casey Automotive make the repair last time so hoping to have a go at it myself this time and try and make sure it won’t happen again.

Stick a bit of vac line in your ear hole and find the noise like that. Better yet use a pair of chassis ears. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93746-can%E2%80%99t-identify-noise/page/12/#findComment-1710677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
joffa1 Member 162 Member For: 7y 9m 20d Posted 21/02/22 06:48 AM Author Share Posted 21/02/22 06:48 AM 😂 you certainly helped out a lot last time it happened. I still had to get someone else to do it though!

joffa1 Member 162 Member For: 7y 9m 20d Posted 27/04/22 03:11 AM Author Share Posted 27/04/22 03:11 AM So I’ve got it booked in at Casey Automotive again as doubtful I’ll have time to investigate myself. if indeed it is a cracked turbine housing as people have pointed to where do I source a replacement. Is there a better aftermarket option that hopefully won’t crack again? appreciate the help.
