Hi all. 2015 Mk7 Golf Sportwagen TDi SEL, 153k mi, slight high-pitched whine around 1.5-2k rpm. Quiet and hard to localize. Half the time sounds like front right wheel, half the time back right. I was guessing turbo noise, or wheel bearing, or even tiny pebble in a brake. It does seem to happen under gentle load. Question: what does normal turbo spool-up sound like on the Mk7? This vehicle is new to me, although I have owned VW diesels for 30+ years. TIA.
