Hi, I have Puma ST-line 1.0 125 mhev. It is made April 2021. When accelerating a bit heavily, I am able to hear turbo spinning very easily. I mean the sound of spinning turbo blades not the flowing air. I have the car since 0 miles and it currently has about 1800 miles, so it is still almost brand new. When I change the gear, I hear wastegate rattle a bit. I can hear it only in urban areas, where the sound is reflected by suroundings.. Is it normal?

Hi thanks for the reply. From your topic, I like the sound of the air being sucked in the turbo. But what I am encountering is something different. I have noticed the Metallic engine sound topic here… I think we have the same “issue” with the car. I still hope it is normal though…

You could always take it to your dealer and express your concern, get them to take a look. Both dealers I've been to say no issues at all.
