Hi TC,

This was my first though when the owner told me the garage`s feedback from his visit. I guess this is one of the reasons why he decided to see if he could go his own route to solve the issue. This is also the reason why I have decided to take a look at this one as it is probably not as bad as the garage claim.

I guess its the same with this as many others:
- Repair the HGF in the proper way
- Check/find and fix issues with the coolant system
- Pray for a survival for the turbo

I will report back after the visit tomorrow
