firstly id check all the air intake/turbo pipes,sounds a bit like youve got one split or loose somehow.then id lay under it with the engine running in park and physically check to see if the exhaust is leaking.. knowing surfs there will be some tell tale black soot near the hole if it is!!

i know when i started it the other day down stormys he seen some smoke come from down behind turbo n exhaust think its where they join but cant see it as there like a white'ish shield thing there

i think there are four heat shields under the bonnet covering the turbo/exhaust manifold all held on with about ten 12mm nuts and bolts.they are fairly easy to undo to check the manifold etc,just do it when its cooled down a bit!!

ok m8 ty for the advice but it wont hurt the engine running like that for now or will it n get it done asap?

if it was mine id investigate sooner rather than later....if not for the fact of any damage it could cause (unlikely but it may damage turbo ) more for the fact of going uphill at 10 mph!!

ok found the prob well sort of with truck sounding like rally car, had a look underneath n found 2 bolts had fallen out. so think the bottom part of exhaust fits up into the one coming down put in new bolts to hold it up but still blowing like a rally car so is there a gasket between the 2 bits of exhaust if so where abouts is it? have you any diagrams for the 2.4 turbo diesel exhaust , anyone help on that plz
