I have a 2001 f350. Lately when starting my truck it makes a grinding noise. It has also lost power when driving/towing. Could this be my turbo? Any ideas. Also, if this is the turbo what is a good aftermarket replacement?
Thanks for your time

the grinding is probably a starter mine did the same thing and i put a starter on it cured that. as for loss of power dont really know but the ebp valve could be open so it may not be building boost. just one suggestion
