I’ve also got a my15 64 plate evoque 2.2 as well as the RRS & I haven’t noticed the turbo whistle when I’m driving if,in fact you can hardly hear the engine at all.Sounds like you could have a problem with the turbo,might be worth messaging Disco mickey on here & ask him as he is the LR tech guy.

No Evoque does not normally make any turbo noise - your garage doesn’t know what they are talking about. Tell them to take it at their expense to be fixed at a main dealers or a make specialist Independent

Sounds like you have a turbo bearing problem that is allowing the shaft to wobble. Most likely due to oil dilution on this engine. A common problem we've seen many times and replaced many turbos.

Thank you everyone! Good to hear I’m not the only one that thinks this is not normal!

All turbos have a little bit of whistle if you listen out for it. If I were you I’d got to another dealer and test drive a couple of similar cars (engine and age) to yours. See for yourself if “they all do that”. RRS MY17 SDV6 AB

When you say they all whistle do you mean they sound like there’s ambulance sirens? I have what sounds like ambulance sirens in the distance kind of noise that as the auto changes gear on accelerating changes the noise like a siren. This is normal in all evoques?! |

On my old 2.2 Evoque, I could occasionally hear the turbo, but it was never loud or intrusive. Most of the time I would say I didn't notice it. |
