You have a worn turbo bearing.I would get a replacment turbo before you do any damage.When you start the engine the bearings in the turbo are dry of oil.Has you start the engine the oil will reach the bearings and the noise will apear to go away.

    it could be your belts. to figure out if it is get a bar of soap and rub it on the inside of your belts. if it stops screaming from that then its just a cheap belt. it will stop the screaming for a little bit and it will come back but i would suggest getting a new belt because it could be quite dry and warn out and you risk it snapping on you and your fan could stop or your alternator will fail and you could get stranded if you keep driving. just hope thats the problem and not your turbo because if its your turbo your going to be spending some money that could go into something better.

The engine makes clicking sound, knocking noise when car is standing after few minutes. the noise goes away when rpm's go up or when car is driving. it is 2001 a4 turbo manual. can it be cam chain...

it could be low oil pressure. timing adjuster would make sounds all the time. if oil pressure is low it can make ticking or clicking sounds, and with turbo you need good oil flow.

My audi a4 1.8t turbo is heating up were it bolts on to the exhaust nearly red when drove can any one help me

you might have a clogged oil line(s) to the turbo not allowing sufficient oil flow to the turbo remove the lines clean with carb cleaner clean the inside of the turbo be sure to scrape off burnt oil....change your oil and see if that works

2001 A4 Turbo seems to be running slower. Any

Running slower, meaning drivability issues? Push the gas pedal and response is slow? Idle is lower than normal or engine is 'coughing'?
Might be an oxygen sensor, usually an easy fix, but parts are expensive.
