Gurus,
I took the input side of the turbo loose today. Removed the boots and the down pipe from the filter to the input of the boot that connects to the turbo. That allowed me to reach in and feel the blades of the turbo. The blades spun easily with no noise or chatter.
I also ran my bore camera down to get a look at the blades.
The blades all have a weird “split” in them but since the edge is not rough, I am assuming it was like that from the factory.
Running the engine at high idle give no hint of any unusual noise.
I will travel tomorrow and will post when I get home if the noise is still there.
Thanks for all the help!
Bill
