I am getting weared sound from inside while driving my 2001 A6 2.7T Quatro.
It sounds like whistle noise. i am not able to diagonise this issue. Any idea, suggestions most appriciated.

 

Post in right thread?

 

That's your FU**ING TURBO.

That's what happens when you drive turbo car's. You get either a DV noise or a BOV noise.

 

Would you take a creaking noise+cash for your whistle noise?

 

What do you mean by DV and BOV

 

One more issue...
do i have to really replace the steering rack assembly if there is a leakage in steering fluid

 

Try posting in the A6 section found here... https://www.audiforums.com/forumid_8/tt.htm

DV = diverter vavle
BOV = blow off valve...

the link will solve your problems though

 

Alright dude, this could be bad or it could be really bad...

How many miles are on your car?
Do you drive it aggressively?
How loud is the sound?


It might just be a "f*cking turbo sound* like the kid said, or it could be a busted turbo.

DV= Diverter Valve
BOV= Blow off Valve
BPV= By-pass Valve


If you havent done anything to your car then you have a Diverter Valve, the rubber diaphrams on the 2.7t models have been known to break but if you don't run it too rough that shouldnt be it. not to mention that wouldnt matter when you are accelerating because their job starts when the throttle is closed.


Those three questions are important, you can email me at thebassist360@aol.com.


Best of luck,
