High pitch screech

I have a high pitch screech when the turbo boost gets above 20psi, especially when cold or towing. The dealer already bent me over to change the gasket between the Y pipe and the egr cooler. Now they want to replace the exhaust manifold gaskets. Seems to me the problem is linked to the turbo. Anybody have the same problem or know what it is?

When my turbo screeched it was broken and rubbing the housing internally. Mine screeched under load, but was okay at moderate throttle.

Didn't cost me anything, because I was under warranty. I believe they replaced the whole thing with a refurb.

I'm not convinced that is your problem, and was just relaying my own experience as a possible issue.

No problem, I was just trying to get some other opinions. The dealer thinks its the exhaust manifod gaskets and I don't I think replacing them would be a waste of time and money. Thanks for your input!

I think your dealer is full of crap. You should ask down in the 6.0 forum for more opinions. If it is an air leak, it would probably be the rubber boots, not exhaust.
