!998 E300TD growling noise when cold
Hello,
My 1998 E300td has been making a growling noise for a while when cold at 2000 rpm and higher. When warm the noise goes away, it sounds like the turbo to me even though the car performs well. I've checked the compressor wheel and it spins very free but has a little side play. I have a feeling that the hot side has more play but there is no way to check it without disassembly. I would like to know which brand turbo comes with these cars and a good source for repair parts preferably in the new england area. I would like to atempt to rebuild it before any more damage shows up. Would appreciate hearing from someone who has crossed this bridge. thanks acerejo |

Diesels make lots of noises when cold. I would not worry about it.

E300turbo growling noise
Thanks for the replies, I will replace the idler tensioner because is does sound like a bearig noise and the damper because of some clacking at idle.
I still think it may be the turbo because of the side play on the compressor side blade wheel. The car has 210K miles and I am runing TotellaT synthetic with 6K change intervals. The next oil I want to try is Delvac 1 5w40. Thnaks again, I will post results |
