No odd noises but crusty sh*t in the turbo oil line. intake fan has hit the housing.I didn't know about the oil filter on the turbo line, if this is maintained how many k's is the garret good for? as I am thinking second hand.What should I pay for a second hand unit? would it be worth rebuilding or is this something only garret can do?Any help would be so appreciated as this is my only family car and I don't have a lot of funds.
