Default Well, car went to the dealer today for boost leak.

I noticed a sound of air rushing under full boost. Then I would occasionally hear a BOV type sound. So, I made an appointment and took it in today. Got to the dealership at 7:45am. Left there by 8am and by 10am my car is done! Now that's service. I will pick the car up at lunch to make sure they really did fix my leak. The advisor said it was the boost sensor leaking or whatever it's called. Glad it's nothing major.

So, the S will be back to WARP speed by tomorrow.

Default Did you only notice the rushing air sound when you were near a parkway divider or wall?

Or did you notice it all the time?
