Hi,

I have 2 questions. My car is turboed BTW.

1. When im at idle the boost gauge flutters from -19 to -16 psi. Why is this/is this normal?

2. The engine makes a ticking sound. Its something like 3 slow ticks then 3 fast ones and just repeats. I thought it was a belt or something but i dont think it is. Any ideas?


thanks

 

Check your BOV for leaks.

 

Holy thread bump I know.. just wanted to say thanks hopefully this is my issue as well. My boost/vac gauge is doing the same thing. I'm new to to the turbo scene(just installed 3 days ago) and I will search as I did to find this info but how do you go about checking the BOV for leaks?

 

I think I found my answer.. Just adjust the top screw on my APexi BOV if that don't work then I'm assuming the BOV is junk right?
