help! boost leak or slipping belt?!?!
Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2007 9:59 am
Need some help please.
On fairly hard acceleration betwwen 2500 and 4000 rev there is a quite loud noise coming from behind the glove compartment area. At first it sounded like there was an boost leak but my mate reckons it sounds a bit like a belt slipping. its a low pitch rough, sounding whistling.
There seems to be no power loss and once you carry on past 4000 it stops.
The car is standard 225 s3 but with a remap done about 2 months ago.
Any advice appreciated. Cheers
