Default Guess who's come to visit?

Turbolady!!!! I am getting a bit of the dentist drill sound only while the car is under load and in boost.

Spoke with my dealer and they feel it is too early to repair it (under CPO) and it must get louder.... I knew it was only a matter of time. I am just passing 105,000kms.

And for all of those that are going to say go Stage 3, I am not. Dumping more funds in my car is not in the cards right now. As much as I would love some Stage 3 love, this is just a car and I have spent enough on it already. I can get it fixed (replaced with new K03's) for $50 at the dealer so why spend $7-8k with a private shop on a Stage 3 kit. After all, it's very fast the way it is now and the car ain't getting any younger....

Default That's not good news for me either. Your car sounded identical to mine two weeks ago. :(

Default Hmmm my mileage is about the same as yours...

I guess I should stay on the look out for the turbo lady...

But seriously, how are you still under CPO with all those mods?
