Turbo Avensis 2.0 D4d Possible Boost Leak

[andrewgmurphy]

Hi all

just got a new throttle body put in to cure a previous issue. Only thing is now when i accelerate above 2000rpm, whem the turbo kicks in there is a very noticeable woosh of air noise outside the car. Could it be a pipe that wasnt tightened properly when the new throttle body was put in. The noise wasnt there beforehand.

Yes, more than possible.

intake pipe.

There is no boost pressure in the intake pipe.

If the pipe is not held tight via the jublie clip, it will make an woosh noise

So what your saying is just to tighten the jubilee clips a bit more.

Cheers for the info

check the pipe for splits and make sure its on firm.

Problem sorted,

Checked all the pipes and the pipe into the intercooler was the culprit.

The jubilee clip had slipped off and slid down the pipe leaving the end of it untightened.

New jubilee clip and the jobs a good one.

Thanks for your help
