Could be a failed tone ring also, there is a couple different recalls for them depending on your year. No codes? Could be a variety of things really like Jacob stated check all your plugs and connection's. Make sure battery is good and check all fuses. But the tone ring failure will also cause a...
Hm, mines not near as loud as I expected when I muffler deleted. Overall noise is slightly louder after the dpf fell off, but nothing like some of the larger engines I hear on the road lol
Looks like you’re referring to the turbo outlet going into the hit side intercooler pipe. The connection has a o ring style gasket in it and overtime the vibrations wear the rubber down. Mine has done the same thing, but coated much worse. Unfortunately I’m unaware if you can find just the o...
Could probably talk to a local hvac company, every van has a tank on it and can probably do it! I was under the impression they were compressed air not nitrogen.
Update 1-
Found boost leak at turbo outlet where the factory intercooler line connects to the outlet. I knew I had some bypass after the aftermarket kit was installed, but I guess it has gotten worse. Time to get creative!
Well, at 179k miles, I believe my turbo vanes are sticking, or my actuator is bad. Haven’t dug too far into it yet, but it seems like the vanes are staying open, not allowing boost to build/ slow to spool up. I will keep everyone up to date with my findings as I plan to start with my map sensor...
Could be the vanes on your turbo acting up. Mine used to do it around 2k rpm with a load and it has since gone away. Almost sounded like the turbo was cavitating
I’d assume it’s righty loosy lefty tighty, I’m not 100% sure though. Let us know if you get it! A few guys here have rebuilt them so someone may chime In
A good thick walled impact socket and high powered impact and I would think it would come off. I know Honda engines require an extra thick wall socket to come off, not sure if ours do or not.
That could be most of your issue. If the dpf is sooted up, you’re not going to move the right volume to boost properly. I’d suggest parking it until you’re completely gutted. I’m suprised you aren’t throwing codes
