cupra turbo screaming!!!

[gazjones]

at the weekend check all the bolts are there as one of mine fell out. if you can from the top look behind the engine if you can see it get underneath it if you can now its lowered and feel if the turbo is loose. if it is try tightening the bolts a bit if your going to keep driving it it then. mine was scrweaming for about 4 days then sounded like my exhaust was no longer there!

il get it up on the two posta tomorrow and have a look round is there a reason why they arent tighten with some lock tight on them???!

i think the temperature the manifold gets will just melt anything other than metal really saw a manifold on wed night bright red/ yellow! nipping them up should help it. the last thing you want is a broken turbo, mine came loose after about 5k done 11k since then and all ok finger crossed

put my poorley baby on the two poster ramp at work and had a good search round and as its so tight at the back of the engine can only confim it is not the cat!!! it sound like its coming from round the manifold turbo area! think the loose bolts is my problem but will have to wait till tuesday to find out!!!

(recharged the aircon, washed, compounded, waxed, hovered, shampoo'd seats and gelled the dash & plastics today!)

looks like shes hopped out the showroom!
