Low Compression On All Cylinders + Excessive White Smoke Out Exhaust


Recommended Posts

So the cars been at croydon. So far a head gasket failure and scoring in the bores (using their little camera). 1 coilpack has failed. And possible turbo failure (probs the rear). Unsure what has actually caused the failure, weather fuel, coolant, fuel caused it or if many things contributed. And as for my usual maint, ive always made sure all levels were fine before driving. But yeah. They will be pulling the head off and visually inspecting the bored turbos and etc.

Update will be up soon

No idea as for now. Im going up to Croydon tomorrow to have a look as they sent me an extremely costly quote LOL . And new turbos werent on the quote (replace or repair)

See what happens tomorrow

Hope you're prepared to drop a bucket of cash on your car to get it running again. If you've done a fair amount of damage and need to replace a few things, it will cost a fair amount, labour involved also.

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
