I don’t think you are ever wrong. You’ve helped me greatly on all my fords you really know your stuff glad to have your channel

I’ve replaced belts several times, and was going to get into possibly the AC thinking its bearing was gone….but this is the exact sound I’ve been hearing under boosted throttle for months! I was losing my mind over a perceived belt squeal that wouldn’t go away.

[steveturner]

Would have sworn that was a slipping belt! Thanks Brian!

[williamtunnell]

Yep! $3000 and 2 new turbos later, I still had that! 😂😢. At least I got some new turbos!

Mine does this and the dealer says it’s normal! It’s struggling to accelerate up hill. I have taken it up there 6 times in 5 months and now my warranty is up and they still don’t care. Since my light is it on, they say there’s nothing they can do. I have watched like six of your videos now you are fabulous. I wish you were near me to fix my car.

Yep had to replace the driver side. I lucked out my service rep. at the dealership knew exactly what it was. Thanks

Great to know. I have a 3.5 Turbo in our Flex. I will remember this noise tip if we ever get it!

[derrickjohnson]

Thanks for the heads up I have a 5.4 but it’s nice to be able to identify it.

[rileysheppard]

Mine has made the same noise for years, exhaust manifold is good, slight leak where the downpipe meets up with the turbo👍🏼

[howardboyd]

Thanks Good looking out, as an amateur I'd of NEVER thought a weird (whistling noise) is the exhaust

[SyNdicateZ]

Its normal for the turbos to whistle while accelerating but that particular whistle was def louder and not normal sounding

[Vince-mm]

The only reason I bought my Ford F150 two years ago with an eco-boost engine, is because I know I could look at this channel when I have a problem

[Motorcycledad]

Man I could have used this info 5 years ago when a shop sold me a new turbo and still didn't fix it. But thanks for getting the info out. So glad I have my 2023 Titan XD V8 now and got rid of that piece of crap 2019 F-150 I had with the 3.5. Worst engine I've ever had.

[johnnycash]

Sounds more like belt squeal but I'll take your word for it.

[AzzKicker-bzcb]

Sounds exactly like a turbo spooling up, except it should have already spooled up at that point in time!!!

[ronlind]

Can't wait to buy my first Ecoboost.

[stephenreiner]

Exhaust surging out around the leak in the ecoboost system. Makes perfect sense.

[weekendhomeprojects]

My dad's wife's son....but as I call him, my brother, mentioned that if you press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start on the infotainment console, you'll get unlimited turbos. That true?

[J-FDesjardins]

Is the engine light on? Did you monitor your pids such as CHT?

[mikielee]

Have the 3.5 haven't had this problem but good to know
