Turbo whine

On a trip to Darwin my 2007 D4D,with 3 hundred & 40 thousand kys on it ,developed a turbo whine ,sounds like ambulance approaching,no loss of power, good fuel economy,home now done approximately 6000 kys with the noise,has not got worse,checked all fittings in the area of turbo & intercooler ,any information from others that have had similar experience.

Finally my turbo sent the vehicle in to limp mode ,the scan gauge told the mechanic the electrical part of the turbo has failed,it is part of the turbo,exchange turbo in transit,hopefully back on the road in a couple of days.
