    Contacted Beaudesert about the whistle and they said it's normal for the Patrols to get the whistle after the exhaust has been fitted. It's from the turbo spooling up faster and running more freely.

    Don't know why I didn't call them initially

    So, good call and thanks guys, looks like it's just turbo whistle and I now know what that sounds like

    Cheers
    mine makes the same noise and mine is not leaking i believe its the turbo with the less back pressure just slowing down easier
