The high pressure turbo can be heard winding down after engine shutoff. You should take care to allow it to cool off before turning the engine off, drive nicely for a few minutes or let it idle for 20-30 seconds.

Turbos do not make "noise" under load, if the bearings go bad you will know it all of the time.

The front engine mount, above the A arm on the passenger side is known to fail in these cars. This will allow the engine to shift under load and rub against things, causing all sorts of vibrations.
