Turbo Surge
Seems like I have developed a nice case of turbo surge. At just under 2000 RPM I can hear and feel the turbo load up and the then wastgate opening. It happens when I'm not towing and running at constant throttle.
I've done 50000 km in the truck and it only just started to happen. It's a stock motor expect for a Quadzilla chip. Any ideas why and what the fix is without spending major bucks?

It's the exact opposite for mine. It runs ok cold but develops surge as it warms up. But it tends not to do it on warmer days. ?

Mine started doing it as soon as I started adding more power The cheapest way out is a new compressor wheel anywhere from 60-120 bucks Is your truck a early or late 99 If it is a early 99 it is might be somethingf else

exhause backpressure valve. Is is controlled by a sensor located near your turbo. It closes when the oil temp is really cold and assists in warming your diesel engine up. It puts a slight load on your engine.
If it malfunctions, it can stick shut or open and shut alot. It kinda sounds like the truck boggs down a little, followed by a loud, sharp 'sshhhhhh' sound |
