Default high pitched faint whistle sound

hello...

great board...i have received a lot of good info...

i have a 2006 a4 2.0T with 700 miles on it... it is one sah-weet ride ... smooth and powerful...

one question though...

whenever i drive and hit 20 mph, i start to hear a high pitched noise...like a faint whistle or like a faint wind coming through the air vents...it's a high pitched noise that most people may not hear, but i have good hearin...i continue to hear this noise as long as i press the gas and go above 20 mph...is this "turbo whistle?"

i've asked a similar question before, but i think the sound is more high pitched than before...is it because the engine is broken in with 700 miles now?

thanks...

sounds like turbo to me.

i wouldn't worry about it. your car is new, so the engine and its parts are still "settling."

that noise also can come and go depending on temperature and climate.

Enjoy your new car.
