Since driving the car today I have started to hear a noise from the engine that haven't heard before. When I accelerate in 2nd and 3rd gear it's sounds like a hair dryer. It's not loud but can notice it. Any ideas? Could it be anything to do with turbo?

it may be best to get it on the computer then
and try and diagnose it that way
as you say it may be turbo related
