Glanza AuA Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) hi today my glanza has started making a squealing noise on full boost, the noise happens at 6000 rpm and stops by the time i let go of the pedal The squeal is hard to describe it sounds like kinda like when a fan belt is loosen. Ive had a look in the engine bay and no hoses etc look/feel loose. The noise is not that intrusive to the cabin as i need the radio muted to hear the squeal. i have also try cleaning the belts but the squealing is still there Could the belts be just worn ?im just posting to share my woes and find out if anyone else has had a similar problem?

Glanza Mac Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 i would try changin the belts if you think they are your problem.another possibily could be your turbo impeller shaft squeeling from the turbo actually starting to fail and break downbut couldnt tell you for sure without being there lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanza AuA Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 ohh my god!! i just noticed the sound coming from the TB all 4 bolt where loosen and 1 bolt missing , now i remember last week i took my whole intake out to clean it even sprayed it, did the whole intake but the TB bolts where finger tight and today while checking the belt i found this bolt hanging between the steering rack pure luckjust tighten all 4 bolts and the squealing is gone im an ass tough Quote Link to post Share on other sites
