at last got me chirping whizzing noise sorted, it was a blown gasket on egr pipe turbo side, what a dream to drive oh im so excited, of for a drive in the p@@@ing rain, cheers.

Now its fixed..does it effect power or fuel economy...i have a similar noise that comes in just over 2000 rpm as the turbo kicks in

Can you put up a picture of where it is????

[stormforce]

i take it he means the pipe that goes between the head and bulkhead and bolts to the manifold at the back near the bulkhead.
The big pipe in the pic fatty put up

Not the pipe in the guy's hand, that's the one from the ERR to the inlet manifold. The pipe numbered 25601 in the drawing is from the Exhaust manifold to the EGR

I posted in another thread asking about egr stuff and somebody said find the egr valve, pull off the pipe and stick a bolt/screw in it. I think I am looking at the wrong thing. Found a round thing up near the bulkhead but has two rubbery hoses coming out of it. Am I close?!

no, look between turbo and head inch diameter pipe flange and two nuts bolted to exhaust manifold, bottom nut really hard to get at, try and tighten first if not renew gasket, hope this helps.
