Ok, this is a strange one. Over the past two days my car has developed a loud purge sound coming off throttle even at low RPM. Performance seems to still be just fine.

If I am driving slowly at 2500 to 3500 in 4th gear and let off the accelerator, I hear what sounds to me like a blow off sound or a purge of boost?

It happens in both M and A.

Anyone?

I am 100% sure I did not have this a few days ago.

Thanks!

Sounds exactly what you think it is... U lhd or rhd?

LHD,

I will try and get a video of it. It is not a normal bleed off sound though.

This is not normal.

Here is a video of it.... Sorry for the iPhone quality.

Does sound a little aggressive and shouldn't be blowing quite like that.

Yeah, that's a little weird. Maybe wastegate or ECU malfunction - dealer time! I'm sure they'll gladly fix it for you. Sorry that happened to you.
