..sorry about the language in my title, but, I think that is what it's called when the turbo is fluffing. Actually, it should be described as a burp because it's coming from the intake end of things, but unlike a gas engine which backfires, air just comes out the turbo intake(????) and sounds like fluffing. ![Roll Eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I saw a post, I can no longer find, that helped identify the sound, but no suggestions as to its cause or if it's an indicator of something else going down. The guy even had a video link to a truck with the anomaly. Sounds like my diesel has gas.![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Does anyone know what causes this??
Air cleaner is clean, oil is clean, water is good. I cannot find any air leaks, turbo bearings seem to be good, vanes are all intact...at least on the intake side, I've haven't removed the turbo to see the exhaust side.... yet.
No codes have popped up either, and I plugged in my Kragen special reader just in case I didn't see a temporary engine light, nothing.
It usually happens when I throttle up a hill with a load. When I back off the accelerator and re-accelerate, it immediately goes away.
I've got about 140,000 miles on her and I have no turbo gauges nor add ons, all factory original.
Thanks for your help.
