Hissing noise for the first couple miles after start-up???
So I just purchased a 2012 MCS about 3 weeks ago, very happy with my purchase so far (besides already having had to bring it in to the dealer to have the Thermostat replaced as the CEL turned on) My question here is, first thing in the morning during my first couple miles of driving, the engine has a loud hiss noise at high rev's.
This is different than the turbo spool (which is very loud and sounds amazing mixed with the Invidia exhaust note)
So I'm concerned about this loud hiss that happens at the top end of every shift but only until the engine warms up basically. Does anyone else experience this with their R56? And what could it be? My first thought was that it takes a few minutes for the oil feed to fully lubricate the turbo and I'm hearing the metal spinning.
Any input would be much appreciated as I'm just concerned about my new car D:
