    Hello

    I have a B6 1.8t with 110k miles. For the past few days I noticed while driving i hear a phantom noise like if i had a supercharger in my car it sounds very weird along with a weird click noise. My turbo feels like it is spooling normally, do I need to clean my PCV system? Or does this has to do with the scary idea of my crankcase going bad? Also when i do hard acceleration the turbo seems fine but I do hear a wee or rinngg while i hard accelerate I do have CXR CAI and FMIC along with a test pipe with no tune and stock tune. Any idea why it sounds like I have a supercharger?

    I think I may have the same sound which I can not find. My PCV system has all been replaced. I am still stumped. Does it sound like this?

    Thank you for the reply. It is cold here not to mention i don't have a bumper on it yet. I am just wondering if its coming from the back what will i need to do but I am having an odd feeling it may be my tensioner I noticed this morning while the hood was up it was wiggling a bit. I am going to replace that and my belt and see if that takes the sound away.

    Sorry for all the bumps. After countless hours of researching online no one can really target what the causes of the odd sounds. I just finished cleaning out the spark plugs and I noticed on CYL 3 It had a little bit of oil (nothing dramatic). I noticed there weren't any oil coming from the head cover so I checked the turbo and noticed a small leak coming from the feed side. The oil was dripping on my inter-cooler and I am guessing it was being pushed through my inter-cooler and into the injectors. I just order a new feed line and I am also looking to install a catch-can. Any how I noticed that most of the weird clicking noise was coming from the crack shaft pulley and also the weird phantom noise was coming from my power steering. I hope this helps with anyone who has the same issue as me.
