I'm not sure which sound you are talking about. One I can hear is noisy belts. Another sound I think I can hear is where you open the throttle VERY QUICKLY and you get a CHOOF sound upon opening it. If you hold the throttle open does the sound keep going? Really doubt its your turbo.

Sounds like a big leak to me, or loose belt, but gas leak more like, see if there's any black burn/carbon marks coming out where manifold bolts to head. Just sounds like it (reciprocates) every engine fire/ second rotation

Thanks for the reply I know the belts are the next thing to be changed I guess I'll have to check out all the bolts

As for the turbo yes iv

Driven it around when I did it and a day after I also did put a stainless steel front pipe so I think that might be it?!

    • Oh this is my 1998 E39 5 series. It's worth more to me than financial value. It's a project car for me to love and work on without fear of f**king up something that has lots of value or that I need to keep running.
    • I'm super realistic here. I love the car and want to keep it but I know it's days of perfect condition are well and truly over. I just want a fix that won't come back. 
    • All good, I'll tag myself in lol.  What car are we looking at here? What is its value/sentimental value? What type of repair do you want to do, 100% perfect back to stock or are you happy just to have the rust gone? My initial thoughts are not very positive but I'll wait to see what your goals and thoughts are first before I start raining on anyone's parade. 
    • Hot tip, stop picking at shit. Live in bliss instead   From my recent experience in rust repairs, white it may seem to not go much further back, you'll still need to cut back a bit further.  From what I can see there, the outer skin, and the inner is rusted too. From what I can see you've got the inner one which is all structural, and window likely affixes too.   If tag Murray Calavera here, but my phone won't let me tag him, he'd probably be able to give the best advise.   I do know, welding roof panels is a right pain in the bollocks! Very heavy to heat distort the roof and warp it all.
    • Some of the filler.   Also if I look under the top flap of metal it starts looking good quite close to the edge. I get the feeling it doesn't go much further.
