Turbo Hose

Post by andyb » Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:35 am

Hi Everyone.

I have a whining noise comin from my bongo as I accelerate which eventually disappears. I'm led to believe it is a problem with one of the pipe letting in air as the turbo gets up to pressure.
Does anyone know where the turbo is on a bongo? I have searched the forum but can't find its location.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

If it's a turbo pipe it will be letting air out, not letting it in.

From the turbo the pipes go down to the intercooler at the bottom of the radiator and from there back up to the inlet manifold on the driver's side of the engine.
