I can hear the turbo spinning after turning the car off even though I idle it for a min or 2. The turbo core was replaced a while ago and the housing and core were inspected during turbo mod and no issues at the time.Ive just bought a new fuel filter and will fit shortly as I never replaced it when changing fuel pump and injectors. Why does the sound dissapear after it warms up for a few mins
09/06/14 06:15 AM09/06/14 06:15 AM #12 Just a quick one but you will always hear the turbo spinning down for like 10 seconds or more after key off, I always have when stock and now modded and well ove 200,000km. Only worry if the sound changes Good luck!

After correcting the issue and allot of degreasing the belt wouldsqueek sometimes. Only reason I mention this is I had someone around to have a listen and that's what they believe itcould be.
