Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    if it's a turbo petrol car, it's a dump valve.

    if it's a turbo diesel car, it could be a dump valve but hopefully not. i believe that noise in diesels usually comes from a straight pipe exhaust on a variable vane turbo.

    you can also get an EDV for pretty much anything down to a pushbike, but at the cost of your dignity.

    If its a turbo diesel its from a straight pipe exhaust with no emissions equipment.

    Will fail NCT
    Will throw engine faults
    It is also questionable in terms of taste.
    Will slowly poison people and animals with fine soot particles.




    That being said I run my car with no re-serc system as i'm too lazy to weld on pipe so what do I know about taste.
