Have you checked the turbo inlet hose? It tends to rub against a bolt and develop a leak, leading to the whistling sound.

Exhaust manifold warping on TD5s is a known problem - especially when tunde due to the extra heat. I had the 90 done in December and the 110 was done earlier last year. John

Is the whistle harmful? My puma whistles or sounds likes an ambulance is behind me at times. I just thought it was the normal turbo sound

its the result of possible warped manifold or turbo flages and/or the gasket between them
the first time i took it to the dealer they replced the gasket and bolts and said they were loose ?

its now in 12month on being checked again

We've had the manifolds skimmed on both the Raiders - I was advised to skim them rather than replace them as once they warp due to the heat they shouldn't do the same again. John

hmm, that does sound like a warped exhaust manifold. A tell-tale sign is black soot around the manifold
