liam2368 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 did the car still run or just completely died and never started again? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BoostJunkie Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 completely died and wont start it can be a number of things and as said wont know for sure until we get it apart.what i do know is when i changed the turbo in december i took out the radiator to make it easier and since putting the turbo in it has been burning lots of water out the exhaust and it required regular topping up of water but never had that problem before changing the turbo as the water level was fine and the water level was the first thing i checked when it cooled down and there was no sign of water so obviously somethings not right..
