What it usually is

Worn turbo bearings, shaft play, or a damaged compressor wheel eating its housing.

Let something listen to it

Reading about sounds only goes so far. The tuner on our home page listens in your browser and tells you what it hears. The app goes further: it names the exact fault, checks it against your vehicle, and tells you how urgent it is.
