Fantastic, going to order one of these. The factory one is abysmal. Thanks for this post.

I got this model. I noticed the starting symptoms of the siren whine in the front along with intermittent white smoke from exhaust on my way to Dublin for the concerts last weekend. Got any idea what it might be? I have the whine which I googled.can be either alternator or turbo but also occasional white smoke from exhaust. I couldn't get the exhaust to smoke on demand it's rare not like a head gasket and both of these issues have come up together.

I have the same model. The siren whine sounds more like the turbo. I noticed mine too a few ago, I thought it had become louder but the mechanic in toyota said it was quieter than his own so I just left it. Failed turbos can do nasty expensive damage so worth checking out. I also have random plumes of white smoke which I thought were a problem but again nothing in diagnostics and it's driving away. I do have a dodgy injector that intermittently raies a code maybe once a year so that be a contributor. The toyota owner club avensis forum can be very helpful if you post there.

@@disturbedcarrot thanks very much. If my problem is the same as yours, how long left would I get out of the car/turbo?

Hello buddy, I’ll start with the white smoke, 💨 don’t worry as mine dose this and the mechanic in Toyota told me that it’s just the car DPF is regening is burning suit in the diesel particulate filter and dose this from time to time, and the whining could be the turbo, if it makes a woooooo when accelerating that’s turbo I’d guess, also the diesel filter can cause the white smoke issue and due to burning the wrong fuel mix and change your diesel filter and it’s easy job and see how that goes, Toyota Avensis T270, D4D, 2.0L Diesel filter replacement, 2008 to 2015. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooPPpquBe5yZb5Y

@@cardiyrepair thanks very much. I've left likes for your videos about this car. I am going to do the EGR cleaning thing you have a video on. I had a mechanic in Dublin give a very quick visual only look he confirmed it is no head gasket problem. If I have a turbo problem, the whine, how long/ how many miles will I get out of it before I have to do something?

I had my car seen at mechanic and you were very right. DPF regen, and it won't regenerate at low fuel levels. Got advised to use Dipetine fuel additives..@@cardiyrepair
