    Alright, I have a strange squealing noise that comes from the passenger side of the engine compartment with the turbo wind up. It only happens occasionally, and only when the truck is cool. When it warms up, it goes away. Almost sounds like a boost leak... but only sometimes? Could it be that the Y pipe seals when it is warm? Not sure. It is a loud sound, a high-pitched chattering that goes with the turbo speed. I noticed my boost gauge "shakes" when the noise is going on, and is steady when it isn’t.

    What do you guys think?

    You think that could come and go? I have had my truck about 3 days, and it has happened twice.

    The stops when gets warm is a curveball.

    Seems a leak would be constant but
    strange things happen under the hood.
