I got my Grande Punto 1.9 Jtd Sport yesterday.
I have driven it for about 300Km now and I'm starting notice some things.
One of the is a bearing like sound, that increases and decreases with the revs of the engine.
I have been reading a lot on the forum and find numerous post about whining turbo's.
I must say it's not whining.
Not a high pitched sound.
It sound more like a bearing or something like it.
The car responds well to the throttle, but I'm used to a 1.4 petrol engine without a turbo. So not a good reference.
I could not find video's hear or on youtube that focusses on these sounds.
They may be out there, but then I missed them.
So my questions:
Is this sound normal for a Fiat jtd?
I drove a 1.9 jtd alfa ones and this does not sound familliar.
If not could it be the turbo or would you ques something else?
What brand and type of turbo is used on these cars?
Is it a straight swap, or do I have to set it up to the right settings (wastegate actuator)?
