Hey guys. I recently purchased a 2001 s4. Upon driving it for a few days i keep hearing a noise when i start to get into the throttle. When i look at my boost gauge i havent even gotten into pushing boost before it sounds like theres a shop vac under my hood. It literally sounds like the turbo is wide open. Im not too familiar with the turbo systems so i need some help.i have checked all of the hoses and clamps and made sure they were all ok and they were. Now as ive read through some forums, its my understanding that the dv's could be bad? Please help me clarify! Thanks again.

Has your car been modified? If it's a whoosing noise it's the turbo doing its thing. Sucking in and compressing air!
