Yes, My 08 turbo is kinda whiny. when idling, what i assume is the power steering pump seems loud. she idles louder than any other car ive had. My dealer says the 'turbos with pdcc all sound like that'. Is this true? Ive driven an 'S' and it doesnt sound like this. What say you

My 08 turbo w/pdcc does the same thing and I have a small leak that I haven't chased down yet. When I bought it I also found that the second reservoir under the cover was low. I'm a bit worried that some one put the wrong fluid in it at some point so my next plan (after fixing the leak) is to completely flush the system. Please post your fix when you solve it!

It’s the PDCC; I spent almost 2-years looking for a CTT / CTTS before buying one, and cars with PDCC all had a noticeable sound difference from their hydraulics. Some cars seemed louder than others and the ’09 CTTS that I finally bought isn’t as loud as most ‘08s that I drove. But I’d have to think both years have the same units and mechanical configuration.

For a data point, my 04tt has made that same sound for the last 70k+ miles. Obviously does not have PDCC. Figured this was one reason they went so over-the-top on sound deadening for the interior, crazy-noisy mechanical noises from the engine. Heck, I can't even hear the turbos spool up unless the windows are down.
