Default BS....

turbos need to be allowed to cool while the car runs....this means that you need to be there with the key in the ignition unless you get a turbo timer....ours don't have anything to take care of this process...

when I picked up my car in december my salesman showed me 2 1.8ts in the shop that had turbo problems associated with the oil circuit to and from the turbo being restricted by the buildup that occurs from just letting the oil stop flowing when the turbo is glowing red....

treat her well and she'll return the love.

Get 235/45 17" Nokian WR for the winter, and you will not have ANY problems with snow!!
