Sarahfr Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 OUCH thats not good news...... can they tell you why it all went so bad(oil starvation or anything)...????Not sure, i always check oil regulary with the miles i do, so know that it wasn't short of oil! It's done 115,000 miles so whether it's wear & tear not sure. 1st huge bill i've had with it, but could do without it at the mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 OUCH! Does that come with lube!?Hopefully it was just wear and tear on the turbo and nothing else caused it, otherwise it could end up a nightmare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I feel sorry for you.On the plus side, instead of repairing it, you could buy Daves Ruby for near enough the same cash! 3 Ms family then! Least he'd know she's gone to a very good home and not have to worry about seeing some random ragging his beloved about.....because this way he'd know who to blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarahfr Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Not heard anything about my car, so rung them up today to be told oh we rang your other half up! It also has a leak on the Egr (exhaust gas recirculation) £40 to blank it off & won't affect the power & performance, so Dave told them to go for it. All been well should all be done for tomorrow although I can't fetch it until Saturday due to work commitments.Can't wait as is costing me a fortune in this gas guzzler of a beast that I'm driving at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
