Turbo Failure symthom
2008 535xi with 102000km, 65000miles
I have no boost at all from 2000rpm to 4000rpm but after 4000rpm to 5000rpm or higher, I will get some. The turbo have a whistling sound but there is no smoke coming out from the exhaust. wastegate rattling all day long. How can I find out if my turbo is bad? or need a new turbo. With Automatic transmission would you suggest a stage 2 or stage 3 turbo?
