Re: Turbo Squealing vs. harmonic balancer Posted by Notnoel [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Turbo Squealing when engine cold, george chiassion, Wed, 11 Jul 2007 06:28:55 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Seems to me if it were belts or the Harmonic balancer it would squeal when I revved the engine while in park (it doesn't squeal at all)and there is no load on the engine, and therefore the turbo is not spooling. I only get the squeal after I've backed out of my driveway (also no serious load on the engine, and started driving. It then stops squealing within the first mile or so as the car warns up.
Also it rather sounds like the turbo - looks like a duck, sounds like duck reasoning. I just wanted to do a sanity check here. The squeal is linked to the RPMs not the speed, which seems to let the tranny off the hook.
Do you all agree that the belts or harmonic balancer issues should be apparent when the car is in nuetral and their absence suggests that it must be another cause?
