After a low oil pressure sensor replacement...i went for a oil change.
To my utter surprise i was told i had a few leaks from the car.
Firstly the car was leaking oil from turbo...i'm told this can lead to engine failure.
And less serious gear box automatic leaks oil...needs new part 300 sterling.
However the turbo is a 1200 repair..ouch.... What does one do trade it in or get in repaired...
Seems swirl flaps r still a potential risk...
Indy said i could get breather in and save changing turbo...
Def thinking getting that done but would it prevent engine damage....
Any advice appreciated.
