The oil burners are known to suffer turbo filtered (my turbo is wining and needs replacing).

What’s the service history like on your car? Load, recent, up to date ?

What’s your driving style like? Drive it hard on boost most of the time (I know I do with a new car!!)

Turbos typically let you know they are on their way out by being more vocal (wining, etc..) before they finally let go...however as it’s new, you don’t know what “good”should sound like after only 2 days

When they do let go it usually not good to keep driving them and you don’t want disintegrating parts entering the engine...

Probably time to get a friendly garage to have a look...

Ps - private sale or garage? If it’s garage you may have grounds to return for repair/refund.
