    Hello drivers.
    I need advice on jake brake noise. It's been 2 weeks...one day i have noticed my jake brake sound a lot louder than normal. So i checked for visible leak,holes, or disconnected exhaust pipe thru but everything was fine. Also i could hear air hissing sound when i let go fuel pedal at high rpm bet 1300 n 1500.
    Checked air line for turbo but couldn't find
    anything wrong.
    if any of you had similar problems plz drop me an advice... appreciate

    My Jake was making more of a obnoxious popping sound back in December. It was very weak also. Ended up I had 3 broke actuator bolts. Not sure about a hissing sound though.
