Default Same here but my whistle sounds every time i step on the gas!

Hey- i have a 99 audi and my turbo whistle's too-
Somtimes it almost sound like a drilling sound-My turbo still works fine and the boost is ok i guess (i know very lil about cars)

i brought it to audi and they suspect that its my "turbo impellar" and said that i need to replace the whole turbo or else it might just stop working one day and i will have zero horsepower. I just hope your problem is a loose something or something minor though.

Default If it's a loud whistle noise on cold starts, and sounds like a jet engine, you could have problems..

bent turbine blades on the turbo would be one.
