New Buyer Advice - Turbo Noise 150psi

[ginkster]

Hello All

I’m new to the forum as looking to buy a T6. This looks to be an awesome place for info and advice. I’m new to the T6 and have only driven one and am really keen on it. However, the turbo seemed pretty noisy with a noticeable whoosh under load - is this normal? Is there anything specific to watch out for? It was a 2018 150psi manual with FSH.

Many thanks.

If you can hear the woosh then it might have a burst intercooler, look through the grille or lift the bonnet and look down the front of the intercooler for any oily patch.

T Hi, sorry for the late reply. I am assuming that your T6 is a single turbo version. It is more likely to be the intercooler. If you look through the grills at the front, you should see two radiators. If you look at the one closet to the grill, you maybe able to see that the fins or structure...
