I have a 06 MXS that dose the same thing, the chirping noise starts off when jake is on after that it starts doing it under acceleration after a few weeks it dose it all the time. I go to the cat house 2 sometimes 3 times a year to have it fixed. On my engine the chirping always turns out to be between the turbo & manifold. Cat has filed the manifold, replaced the manifold, replaced turbo. It's a constant battle, so far all under warranty. I'm tired of the hassle so next month I'm getting PDI single turbo, manifold, jake spacers, timing sensor, ECM & electrical.

mine was 2 turbo nut's gone on top turbo i'd say th gasket is blowed too by the sound of it ...................TimberTaxi where can i find the setup you are talking about
-
took all belts off, all pulleys and tensioners are good, spun fan clutch hub seemed smooth, started truck and noise was still there with truck running?sounds like it is in compressor area,ae these compressors noisy anyway?walked bye another truck looked and had a cat was making the same noise?was 05 first year of this mxs sreial number? has to be something else maybe gears in drive?
-
seen several trucks even mine intake hose for air compressor blowed there is a update for this replace metal pipe with steel braided line but seen some of the fittings work loose even pull threads out of the air intake box behind the fuel filter
-
is this the large steel pipe coming out of top of compressor,where did it blow out around fitting?
-
seems to make noise there will look at line,its the large one out of top of comressor right?threads get worn?
-
yea large steel pipe seen them pull threads out of the air box behind the fuel filter and check the rubbur hose i'd say it's your problem check around the clamps on it
-
Another problem area is the "air box itself". I haven't taken it apart yet, but a CAT tech told me that the air box holds a reed valve and that they have had many problems with this design.

Every time my engine starts to chirp it's been broken turbo studs.3x. Replaced center section once.
