pete300tdi90 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Hey, On acceleration there is a very loud squeal coming from the passenger side (i think) and on lift off deceleration it gurgles like when you gurgle water? Can only hear it when moving so hard to find the problem... Never heard anything like this before. Any ideas? Thanks, Pete (2.5NA 90 btw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phils truck Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Sounds like the turbo has packed it in. They will squeal when the bushes are shot as the wheels scrape, and vibrate on deceleration. That's my quick diagnosis going off your description. Regards Phil.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd look at the wheel bearings first, as it could be a wobbly wheel scraping its disc on acceleration and the wheel oscillating on deceleration.

pete300tdi90 Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 hehe, its old and doesnt have a Turbo. good effort though. I thought wheel bearing, but they seem ok... maybe i need to jack it up and have a better look. any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poohbear Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Does it make these noises when reving the engine at stand still? - If so then it will be engine related. If it only makes these noises when on the move then it must be drivetrain/suspension related. HTH. Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete300tdi90 Posted July 30, 2010 Author Share Posted July 30, 2010 just on the move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 But the engine isnt under the same load when revving at idle so its not entirely certain its drivetrain. Check the exhaust manifold gasket, they can create a squealing noise as gas squeezes out under pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phils truck Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Sorry Pete,,, I didn't realise your vehicle was non turbo as your brief description was a little vague for me to diagnose. (Quote) Just on the move, On acceleration. Hmmmmm,,, Blown head gasket, blown manifold gasket, stuffed wheel bearings, or the clutch thrust bearing. I am not psychic so can you elaborate in more detail please mate. Phil.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
