Clicking ?turbo? Noises

Fwaza esquire · 09-01-2007, 11:31

Hi all, my first post on here but been lurking around since Feb 06 when I got my Fabia VRS. Have a Star Performance Remap Running 188bhp and 289 lb ft torque.

Recently been a bit concerned that while accelerating harder; the turbo as well as normal whoosh noise as it spins appears to be making a rapid clicking noise from about 2-3.5k revs. This however does not happen when revving the engine in neutral. -So had wondered if was perhaps a clutch problem? Has anyone had/know of a similar problem?

Anyway thanks in advance for any light anyone can shed on this matter.

May well be your dual mass flywheel. As well as clicking, is there vibration?

I did previously have vibration when accelerating but not for a while as ive stopped putting the foot down as much at lower revs...

Might just be overthinking it too but when i put the clutch all the way down to change gears right at the bottom theres a bit of vibration through the pedal that was never there before
