Workshop findings: 

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

In rare cases, the turbocharger (part number 06N.145.702.D or 06N.145.701.D) can cause an audible whistling noise.

PRODUCTION SOLUTION

Not applicable.

SERVICE

Please refer to the attached document for VAS 611015  (NVH measurement).

The noise described is a normal turbocharger operating noise. In rare cases, the noise may be heard in the vehicle interior. The above measures can be used to reduce vehicle interior noise. 

This is only a comfort complaint. 

Please explain to the customer that no negative effects on wear or vehicle condition are to be expected. 

NOTE: Replacing the turbocharger with an identical part number (06N.145.702.D or 06N.145.701.D) will not fix the problem. Check ETKA for an alternative available part number.
