My goodness,
I am new to the forum and was really surpised at the number of kind people replying with very valuable words of wisdom. Thank you very much indeed.
So, maybe it sounds like I am putting off the inevitable - replacement turbo. I will save the pennys... although, from what you say, the £850 seems such good value for money. A lot of expertise, engineering and "mechanicing". Like you say; look at the Seat quote and, whilst it might put a stamp in your book and a record for the work, Turbo Technics are legendary in my view. I remember getting a conversion done to my Sierra XR4i in 1991... Got back from the Gulf War and had too much money... But, that's another story!!!
No, I haven't had my car scanned. I actually bought a bluetooth plug-in which I was going to do it myself however, software was rubbish and wasn't able to connect via Bluetooth and cannot get it anywhere without paying again. It was the "BlueSoleil" software - Anyone got it??.
Ok, my next plan is to get it scanned to see errors and I will check back.
Again, really appreciate replies and assistance - I luv me Seat... And me Seat luvs me.... Just wish she'd sort out her Limp!!!
All the best.
John
