Complaint: Whistling noise during deceleration.
Cause: Delayed function of the bypass valve of the turbo charger due to: - wrong mounted vacuum tank from previous repairs - vacuum tank (below intake manifold): check valve defect, decrease of vacuum - vacuum pipes (polyamid pipe and hoses) leaky/defect - switching valve (mounted beside tank) defect - compressor bypass valve defect
Production:

Remedy:

In case of customer complaint check vacuum tank and lines for correct 
mounting. The mark "TOP" on the vacuum tank shows in this application 
downwards. The correct mounting position is important because of the 
check valve inside the vacuum tank. It is possible to check all valves 
and vacuum pipes with a Kent Moore hand pump. If vacuucm doesn´t 
decrease the tested component is OK.

Note: In case of complaint refer also to Quick Information 2259.
