I have a '93 talon tsi this is my first turbo and my first DSM so im a noob to alot of this site but anywho heres the deal. The car was running fine, idleing perfect, and so on but i went to bed woke up the next mourning and started her up and it idles like crap. So then i let it warm up to opperating temperature and it still idles bad. while driving and i rev it up as soon as it hits 4000rpm it make this grinding sound almost like when you use a buzzsaw to cut a pipe. I have oil and ive had a few people say i might have spun a bearing, and yes to be honest i beat on it a few times the night before. However it was hours before i went to bed and it ran perfect when i was driving it around after beating on it. Also another weird part is the sound kinda sounds like its from the turbo but i took the intake off to check the wheel and stuck my finger in there and theres no shaft play or resistance it spins freely and also its pretty much brand new. I've never had a problem like this before ever but hopefully some one else has and can help me diagnose this and yes i have done searches here and have come up with bad idle and grinding but never had any of the two twogether so please help me out. OH!!! ill try to get a clip of it up sometime tommrrow.
- thanks everybody

(gimme a break i gotta D in english) and thanks for the warning and your help and thanks to you two rob. but yea i havent checked the exhaust and i thaught about the heat sheild so i took it off and its still making that darn noise. and the noise happens when im stopped at 4000rpms or driving at 4000rpm and if it is that darn turbo would it cause the crappy idle as well? well thanks for the help
