Hi
Driving a Golf 5 1.9 Tdi 2006.
I get a woosh noise (sounds like a weak dump valve) changing from 2nd to 3rd (and maybe 3rd to fourth) at high rpm. Any idea what it might be?
Also, I get hot-start issues, where the engine over revs by itself when turning the ignition (foot is off the gas) after a long drive.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Re: whoosh noise when changing gears
Last time that happened, over rev, we had a boost pipe leak. Think that is where te whoos also comes from

Boost pipe, burst it will eventually make that noise under normal driving

Re: whoosh noise when changing gears
I know this thread is old but my car is making the whoosh sound whenever I am cruising and I change at around 1900 rpm

Re: whoosh noise when changing gears
We had the same with our Jetta 4 TDi years ago. The car would "jump to life" when starting, and idle between 1500 and 2000 rpm.Jambalya wrote:

Turned out to be a faulty water temperature sender unit.
