I thought about that, or one of the vaccuum control deals. Dont think
its the turbo itself although it might be. I do know it doesnt do it
with the car parked and just reving the engine up.

Any of you 124 diesel owners ever had this problem...my car makes a

Some '84-'85 OM617.95 engines with Garrett turbos (NOT KKKs) made a
whistling noise that can only be repaired by changing the turbo (TSB
09/4 dated 11/85) or replacing several perts of the turbo. Mercedes
offered a kit for a few years (only available with a core to return - as
the major part in the kit was manufactured from returned original parts)
containing the parts to correct the offending turbo (917 090 00 99).
Modification of the turbo parts required services of a very well
equipped machine shop and a very good machinist. Mercedes did not expect
service facilities to perform the modification so supplied the kit -
until the early '90s I believe.
On OM60x.96 turbos and all other OM617.95 turbos, a whistle is caused by
a leak in the turbo or exhaust system (including the EGR) somewhere.
