Hi,
I have a GU 2.8TD Patrol and have noted a sucking sound as the turbo kicks in and continues whilst the trubo is spinning. (This is different to the whistling of the turbo) I took it to Nissan and they suggested it is just induction noise. The noise wasn't there when I brought it. I can find any noticable holes in hoses, the power hasn't changed any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mine has the same noise - you can play with the accelerator position and tune it in and out - does not occur under light load
Sounds like it shouldn't happen
Discussed with dealer about 5 years ago - did not have any suggestions
Couds it be restriction in intercooler due to oil buildup?
Would like a fix !!

As you have had work done on the car I reckon it must be something that happen during that work. You have probably already checked but have another look at all the hoses and clamps on the turbo and intercooler. Even though they say they didn't touch them they could have pushed against a pipe and made it leak etc.
Also
check the large air inlet pipes and see that they are still firm and dodn't squeeze up when suction happens. this can happen sometimes if they have gotten oil on them.
Again
check the aircleaner box for cracks or leaks. Just a few ideas that might or moght not help.
