MKIV Turbo Whistle normal?
Hi,
I am new to this site, I am hoping to buy a 93-96 twin turbo supra. I have seen one I am very interested in but on the test drive there is a noticable whistle from the turbos. The dealer said its fairy normal and they all do it, I had the windows up and could hear is quite clearly. Could anyone tell me if this is usual, or is it an indication they are about to die! Many thanks James |
