    Sirocco R, whine noise under boost normal?

    Hi All,

    I'm hearing a whine noise when under acceleration/high boost, are other sirocco r owners hearing this too ?

    Are you sure you aren't just hearing the turbo?

    Generally you cant really hear the turbo if your car is stock - but if you have tuned the car then you will start to hear it.
