I bought a new car last week, a 57 plate Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 CDTI.
I love it, particularly the fact that I can actually hear the turbo nice and loud on this car (in gears 1-2, quieter in gear 3 ) as I could not hear the turbo in my previous cars.
I was McDonalds car park tonight, I was driving around 5 - 8 mph and I accidentally hit and went over a curb approx. 4 - 6 inches high. the front passenger side hit and went over the curb making a horrible thud noise.
Immediately after I realized the turbo only seems half as loud as it did before hitting the curb, also when driving after wards when decelerating I hear a quiet whose that I am sure was not there before.
is it possible I may have damaged my turbo via hitting the curb or is that not possible ?
thanks
