Turbo overheat cause 'ticking' noise?
I made a 2,147 miles journey. The last 900 or so miles was up and down steep mountains. I had never driven this terrain, and didn't know that I should have been down-shifting. My car started to make a sort of "ticking" noise about 250 miles from my destination. I took off the TID, and made sure it wasn't the compressor wheel. It definitely sounded as though it were coming from the turbo. Is it possibly the exhaust wheel? Perhaps I overheatedit or warped it from the super hot exhaust temps?? Wouldn't the rear turbine affect the front, though?
