string Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 high pitched nosies are normally boost leak related. have you checked all ya pipes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 check mani and turbo bolts are tight as it could be the gasket vibrating. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 The clicking noise you can hear is the abs pump every glanza i have owned has done the same thing soon as you turn the key and leave it for 2secs it make a buz type of noise....As for the high pitch noise as said it could be a leak have you checked the boost gauge to see if she is still boosting as she should?

ryan33hks Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Mine made a high pitch noise when on boost and it turned out to be a boost leak on an intercooler pipe. Miss the sound now tho lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollie and I could hear it in front!are you sure its not the bearings mate?Was nice to meet you anyways Lewis! Your car looks Savage! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joe-ep91 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 deffo boost leek. Try putting it in 4th/5th gear at about 40 and listen to the spool up. This should confirm it. Hope this helpsJoe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bucketep91 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 my first hybrid did this and dropped boost after reaching .8 bar. How is it boosting buddy? turned out my turbo was fucked not sure what happened but the balancing was way out and it was the compressor wheel hitting the inside causing the screeching noise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottyb Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 mine does this too, but only at very high revs, like not far from redline. its just like a whistling sound, sounds like air escaping somewhere or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scottyb Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 no mine doesnt suffer from that. there is a chirping sound on tick over though, turned out to be the oil breather, but i've just left that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bucketep91 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 im not saying what happened with mines is whats happened to urs, just saying it sounds like it. pop your air filter off and check for play in the shaft/ damaged blades etc go around all intercooler pipes and make sure everything is tight aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ollie ryan Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 i spoke to a mechanic about this today mate and he said it sounds like a blade is chipped and put the turbine out of balancemight be worth taking the turbo off and checking the blades over Quote Link to post Share on other sites
