just been out for a drive. at very low revs, basically when you blip it, it sounds like a metal shaking noise coming from the bonnet. happens when over speed bumps. turbo picks up fine and pulls as it should....could this all be down to nakered DV? any help much appreciated. Thanks

to be honest it could be a number of things cuasing this just check the pipes thoroughly as obviosly mine was in front of you eyes on top of the dump valve
do you know anyone who has a golf turbo that you could try their dump valve out to see if it has blown or not what dump valve have you got?? is it standard or aftermarket
