Weird Sound

[Rudi_ARX-TURBO]

hello gentlemen,

now and then i get a weird sound felt thru my foot on the pedal, and only on boost and sounds like a vrrrrrrr and coming from the front right side of the car ,as soon i take the foot off the gas it goes away i thought wheel bearing but thats been done. may be awd problem or aws or some thing i don;t know ideas any body.

cheers rudi

Could it be the farting BOV problem or have you already replaced the BOV?

It was a problem on mine and replacing the part cured it but yours could be something different.

HTH,

Jas

Hey thanks for reply, it's a definite sound from the the right front end, and it's being going for yard now but getting worse .

[ClassOne]

Does it get worse when you turn?

If I can translate your "vrrrrr" it might be the CV joint, they also have what seems to a bearing in them on the outboard side of the shaft

[Rudi_ARX-TURBO]

That was my next guess, need to get it sorted

[scotty nm35]

It will most likely be the BOV Rudi. Try sliding a sheet of coke can under the bov as a test, it will make completely different noises then. Zutututu.

All the ones I have here do the same thing, it's just play in the plastic disk that causes it I think. The Turbosmart Kompact plumb back works well if you want to upgrade, or perhaps a GTR BOV would work?

I repied in wrong spot, bov upgrade sounds good.

[ClassOne]

or just block it off

[scotty nm35]

If you have driven one with the BOV blocked you may change your mind, it can ruin the part throttle response and make the car jolt badly, mainly when dropping off boost.

As there is nothing stopping the compressor, and no purge, you will get boost spiking, perhaps up to 50psi in the intake. This can cause pipes to split or pop off, as well as damaging the turbo. Just not worth it imo, other than the stupid noises that scare the chicks away...

+11ty billion!

The sound of it zutututututututututututuing it's head off drove me mad in about a minute & a half when I was troubleshooting with it blocked off.

And as Scotty says; the car feels like shit with it blocked off, to say nothing of the potential damage.

I must be getting old; cos I would have sold my sould for that noise when I was 20.

I've got a shim made up if you'd like me to post it out to you Rudi, then you can at least eliminate it as a potential fault.

Scotty, you love ztuuzuzuzuzuzuzing. You said so in my car......

And you remember seeing all the Golburn girls getting excited at ztuuzuzuzuzuzuzing ?

[scotty nm35]

I am amazed HKS didn't try and sell you a hektic atmo BOV with your kit...

Oh that's right, only 1psi boost was made.

Sounds hawt!

Which one of them had the community tooth that day?

[PN-Mad]

Rofl.

Some things are better without teeth.

No need to explain why you had that photo handy Dale... We understand...

Only chicks I saw at Golburn were you and Craig, Alex.
