Ticking/ clicking noise when in boost.
« on: 22 March 2013, 07:18 »
Lately been getting a ticking/ clicking noise when in boost. If I slowly go put the foot down it doesn't do it only if I plant it and it spools up fast.

Injectors on there way out?

I have a bad feeling about my boost gauge as it is because a noise comes from it when in boost like its leaking air.

I'd be making sure the piping is ok and tight, if you don't have a proper T piece, get one as they make a horrific noise without one

My lambda sensor is actually off thread so it's not sitting right just waiting on getting a new one and gonna sort it, could be that!

Had a look at t-piece and it looks to be quite well on!
