Hey guys I am new to this owner operator deal

So what’s the problem problem, is it the losing air to quick to move or the turbo making a mean whistle?

Doesn't work. Just google the code and download the pdf

 

I take it you bought the truck just like you bought a car. it looked pretty and you like how it felt when you sat in the seat.

 

Isn't that the way you are supposed to do it when you go to Select Trucks ( or Paccar Leasing, or Arrow, or International Certified)? Row after row after row of truck tractors, all 3-4 years old, all with about 360-380k miles, mostly automated manuals, mostly driven by any number of inexperienced drivers who abused them, all the pretty colors of the rainbow, all with the decals of mega carriers removed, all have been detailed inside with enough Armor All to float a battle ship. Some have "brand new rubber"(recaps), "100 % brakes", absolutely the cheapest easiest mechanical item to replace on a truck, "30 day warranty on the emission system(read the fine print, supplies parts only, labor on you)
In other words there are a dozen reasons why most of the major trucking companies have decided to shorten their trade cycles from 5-6 years and 500-600k miles down to the present lower numbers. The trucks are ticking maintenance time bombs being dumped on the market to unsuspecting secondary customers who are going bankrupt trying to keep them running.
All the major OEM's have a remarketing organizations listed above to get rid of the units for the original customers. Select Trucks is owned by Daimler, Arrow is owned by Volvo.
Have fun. I will keep my 2000 Freightliner thank you.

 

No stude, you are just supposed to hand them the cash and they pick out the truck for you.

 

Sounds like you have a big boost leak somewhere, that could of damaged the turbo. I’m not sure, but maybe it’s just whistling like that right now because it’s not a sealed system.

Check the boots, piping, in and out of the turbo for tightness, holes, basically you want no air escaping. Common places are around clamps. If you idle the truck, you should be able to go out there and feel around where the pipes, boots and clamps are, your feeling for air being pushed out. If you find one that’s super serious, it should be super obvious.

This might be relevant. A couple of steps down it does mention checking for air leaks and restrictions too
