Thanks haztorks! so that's what it was learned something today.Welcome to the world of turbocharged engines!
Here's an unmuffled turbo Honda that helps show those unfamiliar with turbos, how much noise that little wheel is really making. Generally car enthusiasts like the sound, but I can understand it being annoying, especially if you think it's something wrong with the car (starts at 2 min mark):
If it's bugging you, you shouldn't have bought the turbo model.. This is completely normal and is very quiet, not sure why it's bugging you so bad..Hi, I'm getting a faint whistling noise from the turbo engine when I'm accelerating or decelerating at low speeds. Is this normal for the turbo engine? Can anyone please help me out, this is bugging the hell out of me. Thanks!
I get the same faint whistling noise when I'm accelerating at low speeds too. Mine kind of sounds like a drilling sound, like the drill the dentists use. Is that what you hear too?Hi, I'm getting a faint whistling noise from the turbo engine when I'm accelerating or decelerating at low speeds. Is this normal for the turbo engine?
