The Ford Transit has been reported to have problems with the boost hoses on this model for the turbo. They can produce an oil leak and a hissing noise.The signs of a leaking turbocharger system start with a lack of power or random mIS Fires. In some cases, the escaping boost pressure can be heard. But, if the wastegate or bypass valves are leaking, You might not hear any noise.When the wastegate is not relieving pressure on a consistent basis, it will commonly cause the boost pressure inside the turbo to oscillate rapidly. If You have a boost leak, do not boost the car or Your engine will run very rich and kill Your plugs, among other thins.
