feel it. but seem like OP is pretty set on not taking it in...

 

I dont have the money to take it in lol....just trying to fix it myself...and I can get some help from my friends who know more....I was just trying to get some more info on the situation and possible fixes

 

If you don't have the money or knowledge to properly diagnose and fix, you shouldn't be driving it.

 

i too was thinking of a subtle way of saying: you cant afford it/you gotta pay to play.

 

+1 I wanted to post something similar...but couldn't find a nice way to put it, so decided against it

 

 

do we see the start of a trend? lol. TBH, id like to help the guy out. but he makes it so difficult. as if hes intentionally making it hard.

OP, no offense to you or your friends, but you keep taking their advice, your repair bill is going to be far more than what it could potentially be now. THe way, as well as everyone else, sees it: its either the shop or SOL, given the info and help you give US. again, GL, but dont expect concrete help or answers. and for the love of God, dont think we are the ones being un helpful

 

 

LOL, one is glad to be of service. There isn't anything rude about it. If you don't have the money to pay someone to find out what's wrong and fix it, you need to hold off on driving it again until you do.

 

Do you have the money to replace the motor? Because that is one possible outcome of doing it wrong or doing nothing.

 

and people that tell you outright that its your external wastegate on oyour stock turbo....youre on the right path buddy

 

This should be in some terms of agreement for getting on here, least have to pass a small quiz on this very concept.

 

Can we please disable auto play on this ****!!!!
