Hey Guys & Gals,

Right I have problem with my car I am currently running an Allard VT5 turbo and have been for some time probably 2/3 of the cars lifetime (2003 car - 100k).

A couple weeks ago my car developed a strange noise from the turbo when spooling, it's sounds like something touches the blades like water of something but it stops once you hit full boost and pulls the same as it always has, HARD! lol. But I want to know what this is, I am worried the turbo blades maybe bent of such like...

Anyway anyone know what this could be or if at all the turbo? One of my mates had the same sound in his Tommi Evo and it turned out to be the spark plugs weren't gapped correctly, but of course I know I dont have spark plugs, being a diesel...

Any help is much appreciated!

Also anyone know off the top of their head if Allard turbos have a warrenty on them?

Won't have a warranty now. The only way to be sure is to remove it and inspect the compressors.

I managed to blow mine up, but it did die giving it 110%.
