Define “blew out”

 

Was driving home from work, turned onto my street, had 0 power on acceleration.  Engine "shook" got power back, but there was so much smoke blowing out the exhaust that I looked like I was doing the sickest burnout ever.

When I pulled into my driveway the idle was terrible the engine was shaking, I turned her off, tried to start her again and she wouldn't.

she spent 2 days at C-Red and they told me that 2 cylinders lost compression, the oil line to the turbo split and the turbo blew up too, and the head gasket went as well. 

While they were looking at her she seized up completely.

Bummer. Part out or fix? At least it made it home for you.

Sounds like the oil line blew and it ran without oil pressure

What turbo does it have?

What’s the plan?

Stock Turbo. It was just an old, high KM Engine, remember the car was parked up in a Trucking yard with no Rego for years and had a very questionable past.

 

So now I'm looking for a new engine which, these engine are stupidly expensive, and I'm going to sell my old engine to anyone who'll take it for maybe $500...

I was told there would be cake?


Wait. There was supposed to be cake? I never got any cake when my 25 ate it's bearings. I feel ripped off.

    • I could show you guys photos of wrap having been removed properly, and where the wrap was removed, paint underneath is perfect. Sections of the vehicle didn't have wrap on it, and in those areas, the paint work is destroyed because of how long it had been sitting in the hot QLD sun for many many many years. Wrap even still looked decent. Good quality wrap, and removing it properly shouldn't rip off the paint work, unless the paintwork was already shot to pieces before hand.
    • Any write ups on replacing the window motor?  I've never messed with them (or window regulators) before.   Ever since I've had the car, the driver window would roll down just fine, but most often I'd have the try a few times to get it to go up.  As soon as it started to go up, it always goes up smoothly and quietly.  Seemed like a bad switch.  But now, its stuck in the fully down position and won't come back up.  I get =12/-12V coming out of the relay/amp when pressing the switch up/down.  So the switch and amp are working.  Just a bad motor.  I've also applied 12V directly to the motor and nada.   Any help on replacing the motor?  Can the glass and regulator stay in, and only replace the motor?  Or not possible?  Thanks!!!
    • You are wrong. That's just Whiteline going along with the incorrect slanguage of the sheeple userbase. They are only correctly known as anti-roll bars. They are only incorrectly known as swaybars. They do do anything to prevent "sway". The swaybars that are fitted to trailler hitches do prevent sway. In the trailer. And they do not look like anti-roll bars. So, take your incorrect infopinion away.
