Hello guys,
This is my first post to this forum, or any forum for that matter. I have been eavesdropping for some time and really enjoy reading all the dialog.
I pull a 30’ travel trailer in North Carolina, so some mountain pulling and some flatland pulling. I seem to get a lot of air noise from the turbo when under load, a loud whooshing or fluttering sound which basically sounds like air leaving the compressor the wrong way. How harmful is this to the turbo and will the compressor wheel and larger turbine housing offered by Banks correct this problem? I am also experiencing another noise which I cannot easily describe. This also only happens when towing and basically sounds like the engine is turning more RPMs than it really is, even when not under power and braking. Mine is automatic and a downshift usually eliminates the sound but I would like to know what is causing it. I have 49k miles and have not experienced any slippage or anything out of the ordinary with the trans. Thoughts?
I have some other questions about different power options; I will get to those another time.
