Louder in what way? Exhaust, ticking, engine noise, turbo spinning up????

[Grimo72]

it sound's like a blowing noise, but i dont think its exhaust though

[Big Sig]

Not a whistle? does it get louder with engine speed or just mph?

[Grimo72]

no not a whistle, sorry new to diesel

it goes with rpm not the speed

DPF regenerating

It will last for several miles, then suddenly stop again. Pain in the bum but it's supposed to happen!

[Big Sig]

Have you checked all the boost hoses incase they are/one is loose?

:edit - thanks Para Paul. I don't have one of those dpf's ao have no idea what they sound like.

[Grimo72]
