Just a few days ago my turbo on my 1991 MR2 started to squeak when it spools up. I've heard other turboed cars do this before, but I don't know if it means something is wrong or not. It kinda just makes a high pitched squeaking noise when it's boosting... and there's no loss in power either. Any ideas?
BTW it's an ihi-rhc6 turbo, if that helps. |

Hmm, why do you say coolant level? Because about the same time this started, the engine temp (according to the gauge) was colder than usual and took longer to warm up...
edit: Yes, it sounds kind of like a loose belt, and it does it the whole time the car is boosting. This post has been edited by YellowTwo: Nov 9, 2004 - 11:22 PM |
