Beg to disagree. Turbo in my '83 300D has been singing to me for over 100K
miles.

If you can hear the turbo, it's shot, they are very quiet.
Just because the flap moves doesn't mean you have boost, but you do have
one working switchover valve
Gotta agree with Gerry on this one. I love the faint sound of the turbo on
my 83 300d. Maybe my 2.5 straight pipe exhaust has something to do with
it...lol

You and Gerry are talking about a W123 turbo. Larry,
I don't remember hearing a turbo in a W123 being normal either, but
will find out soon. Certainly did not hear one in the W126 with OM617
I test drove.
Volvo is another story, those sound like a police siren a couple
blocks away!

Every w123 I have driven you could hear the turbo. My ears are very
sensitive to high frequencies and mechanical noises in general. I guess I
am actually listening for it every time I drive.
