Ive dealt with Barons Woodmead on many occasions, they have been very helpful and provided excellent service, like others before have stated, don't slate the dealership...

I'm with ExDohc and company on this one. You took a chance, it didn't pay off, how can the dealer be at fault?

You should've taken it in the first place to a more 'lenient' dealer.

That said, i feel your pain man. Write it off to expensive 'school fees'. What doesn't kill you will only make you stronger :wink:

guys remember i did not ask them to fix anything for me i just wanted to know if it was safe for me to drive the car for a few more days b4 i had it fixed elsewhere- and then they go report it
i do know its my fauly, i admit i took the risk
yes this thread may b useless, but just a warning to those who have mods dont make the same mistake i did - be patient, take it to dealership u know, even if its just a question u wanna ask
but there are sum dealers out there that will go just that extra mile, to help u out not to get u into kak
but any way -
my car is making progress
thanks to sum1 who goes waaaaaaay out to help a brother out - we all know who he is
& aso thanks to sum1 from frc, who ive never met but we all know him as well
once im 100 % sure about the verdict i will let u all know
just wanna say thanks guy's, i will never forget what u both are doing for me!

$hit, do you run it down for a few minutes after caining it? Sure is strange on such low kms. There seem to be quite a few PGTis with failing turbos...

always bru
I idle it 30 sec in mornings, drive her under 2000 rpm till its at optimal operating temp
always 2min idle before i switch her off, i hardly give it stick...
beats me as to why it happend
guess the turbo & clutch were just defective from the factory
