Very Loud Whine On Boost, Death Whine?
ive been lead to believe the zed turbos are water cooled so id guess one of those lines in blue would be the water feed with the returns on the bottom although im not 100% as ive never taken one to bits But i would say IF the left hand feed line was oil then if it were to pop off or split it could spit oil all over the place including were you have you puddle might be an idea to top up the oil start the car and see if you can see were it coming from or more likely feel were its coming from lol

could be your oil feed pipe split or return if your lucky, dont sound like a seal because your not burning any oil

Why did you choose a zed??
tbh i was looking online on day and stumbled onto them and i couldnt find a car that offered so much for so little money electric everything, twin turbo v6, reliable, great looking and tuneable all for 2.5k what a bargin!!! so i snapped up a uk auto and havnt looked back and to be honest i still cant find a car that offers so much the only 1 small gripe i have is road noise on the m'way but appart from that i love it

well as soon as i hear it i let off the throttle then if i put my foot back down again its usualy gone although a few times if i drive it really hard for a while then it stays for a bit so i ease up and it goes, although it only ever does it when i boot it never when im crusing or accelerating gently

random noise
wonder if anyone can help every now and again i get like a loud humming noise when i accelerate it doesnt happen all the time and if i back off the throttle it stops right away, id say once out of every 7 or 8 days i drive it it had the crank seal done a few days ago and therefore had fresh gearbox oil and the old stuff was cherry red not burnt and black so im thinking diff but cant be sure as it doesnt do it very often anyone else had similar problems?
