Hi everyone. My fifteen year old E320 CDi is now running very well. However, in the last month, I can hear a noticeable whistling noise on acceleration which I assume is from the turbo. The fuel consumption is normal and the car accelerates perfectly. The whistling sound is not noticeable for the first mile or so when the car is driven from cold. It doesn't seem to have got any worse in the last month.
Is this a sign of impending turbo failure, or likely to be a slowly developing turbo problem which I can live with? Could it be due to a leak?
Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
