Well, my car has been fine since i bought it (9 months) but today, after two hours of driving, the engine oil light came on. Checked the level, all ok. Checked to see all hoses, cables etc were ok, all ok. Turned the car off, it would go, but after 2 minutes would come back on. Great! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
Took it to local indy, he recommended an engine flush, oil change and filter change, since it had done 5500 miles since last oil change. Got down to eurocarparts, purchased the stuff. Can for flush said pour into engine and let it run for 15 mins. Which I did. (i did ask the guy at eurocp, if it was suitable for turbo'd engine, he did say it was). Neway, did the oil change etc. Started the car, everythings ok.
Went down the road and noticed theres no turbo. No whistle, no diverter valve noise or anything. Put my vag-com on, no fault codes whatsoever!
Been told by an audi specialist, its likely the turbo's gone. Hes charging me £400 all in to recondition my one and labour etc.
Is this possible?? What should i do?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
