I'm struggling to find out what's happening here.
I'm new to this TDI, bought it dirt cheap. Don't know it's history.
Did the brakes, and have driven it for 3 months to feel it out.
EGR was spitting oil something fierce. So, removed and cleaned the EGR and drained the intercooler and wiped it out. Maybe 1/5 of a cup of oil in it.
Now I'm hearing a flapping/fluttering like noise that seems to be around the EGR area. Noise is loud when under load, about 2200 to 3500 rpm. Seems quieter and happens later when in the driveway in neutral.
Sound stops if I let off gas pedal.

I've been looking for an air leak around all the clamps and seals of the egr and intercooler house I took off and tightened them but haven't solved it. If anyone can direct me in the right way to go, that'd be much appreciated.
