Gang,
While tracing a bunch of different noises from the CRD, found metallic rattle coming from TC. Am also getting the Banshee Scream under boost. But, since I triple checked all hoses for splits, and checked all clamps, I'm guessing my 2nd TC has doo doo the bed. After shutdown, as the TC fan-o-mabob slows to a stop, it sounds super crunky. Also, as I sat and listened to the slight metallic noise bounce around from inside TC, every once in awhile I can hear one loud knock from inside the TC housing, like a bearing, or object is bouncing around in there, and occasionally bangs off of the housing.
I need to pull a hose or two from the viscous heater, to get that rubber, molded, elbow intake hose off of the front of TC to inspect. Anything I need to worry about when I pull those heater hoses? Just catch the fluid and top off when Im done?
Also, if it helps: @$#% mice. I had mice nested in the airbox over the winter. I am about to find out if they went back into the inlet and @$#% my TC with a bunch of acorns.
The 2006 Jeep CRD makes me feel alone...cold, desperate, and alone...isolated from humanity...for all time.
