I would suspect front or centre diff backlash / wear

 

Tends to make a "straight cut" sound like reverse as they wear out

I think this might be it. I googled it and found a video of a bad diff. Sounds like the noise i'm hearing.

 

Will get that looked at.

 

Thanks!

doubt its wheel bearing !

 

i suggest you don't start your car.. and get it towed ( with out starting it ) and have the turbo checked( with out starting it ).

 

if you start it after a turbo failure all the bits bypass the filter and go on all the precise machined parts and ruin them.

 

 

its very common for people to change the turbo and then the engine will fail a few days/ weeks later. ( and kill the turbo again )

 

 

Thanks for the advice. I will get that looked at.

I have an 2008 LGT 5EAT. Not sure if its the 100% transmission or something else, but there's a weird noise when accelerating. I guess the best way to explain the noise is it sounds like a reverse noise, but not as long. The noise pitch increase as i accelerate and goes away when I'm at a steady speed or left off the gas. Noise pitch does not change when changing gears.

 

Any ideas what it can be?

I'm not like the 08 5eat... Maybe its just my car, but i feel that it doesn't shift properly... Between 2nd-3rd, it revs high before shifting. Then 3rd-4th shifts way early... I did a relearn and it worked for a bit, but feeling sluggish again... =T

Here's some info. I read previously somewhere in there that it doesn't work, but they could have a found a way.
