not being stupid but does the noise change or disapear if you pour water over the belt
is it the correct size belt ? is it in good condition ?
when was the last time the belt was removed and bearings checked ?
if you think its a harmonic issiue mark it with a white marker does it move much by hand

O
sounds like boost creep
when adjusting waste gates or playing with turbo configarations a boost gauge is needed or a map KPA reading under all loads and gears
please guys dont just geuss on thread counts then hope for the best
ps dont also be lazy when installing a boost gauge you need to...

yes on the 8 bar no T peice just saying
your true rail preassure is read from the outlet at the head with a T peice and not at the fuel temp sensor location either
anyways to low of a fuel pressure you would also experiance some sort of diesel knock ?
-
O
you have basically answered your own question by accidently it performs better lower boost
accidentally you mean less HOT air pumping into the engine .... more boost means more heat less dense .. the intercooler can only do so much an some what limited and the turbo also has a AR ratio also...

O
if you have over filled the oil then yes
if you are are on even ground or engine not not level for other reasons.... yes you will loose some oil ..... but there is no harm in catching it into a clean container either

O
you seem to to things in reverse
me persaonally would pressure check the coolant system thats if its a coolant leak
-
O
instead of letting it drip onto porous concrete try placing bucket this way you can see if its oil or coolant
if you suspect coolant
pressure test the coolant system
-
O
opening the bonnet can also be just a hard job on its own for some
depending where the leak is?
moving things out the way is part of the game my friend some people like to struggle while others dont
just wait untill you have to replace an oil cooler
ps the spinner is only held on with a 3...

its funny becouse this aftermarket never came in a fancy box as it was on the car when i bought it any ways lasted from early 2012 to early 2019 it only developed a slight weep out the hole ..... pressure was still good 4 bar .....i could of just left in in place an extra drop of diesel...

O
i know it was an aftermarket one the orings where not the issiue in my case it weeped fuel internally meaning fuel coming out the tell tail so no need to replace the hole housing
ps i have a preasure gauge installed in the correct place while using no issiues there
-
O
if you dont have a diagnostic tool
pour water over the crank sensor to cool it down
-
O
isnt this the fuel preassure regulator ?? there are numbers on the top unsure if this a Bosch one..... but it had been in the since 2012 it devoloped slight leak out the tell tail in 2019
-
O
i am not also here to high jack a thread but do you have a sample of both gaskets to compare ?
-
O
did you notice in the fuel pressure reg there is gallerys and ports???? ...keep this in mind if you need to measure head pressure in case of future issues ...... many may get false readings measuring pressure at the temp sensor location
-
O
glad you got it sorted
thats a very good tip to have a stud ..i will do this next time
just out of curiosity did you find much debri in the gauze ?
