Disagree, I will also add to the fact that not all of us have the luxury of living in a big city where your nearest tuner is 15 or 20 minutes down the road, to take mine to an expert in Melbourne is an entire day off work, not to mention the fuel to get down there and then obviously whatever they charge, and while you say that they would have it diagnosed within the hour, some of the so-called experts on this thread have put forward their recommendations of what they think the issue is, of which we have then gone and tried, and surprise surprise, it hasn't been that. Thanks for your input but I think I'm going to take the opinion of somebody that's actually qualified over somebody on a message board thanks.

There are very few, if any outside of Melbourne that I trusted. Believe me, if I could have had a reasonable job done in central vic I wouldn't have gone elsewhere. I'm not sure which shop you're refering to in town and I don't doubt their skills or experience on performance vehicles. But I also believe its a job for a Barra specialist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixman Donating Members 600 Member For: 20y 4m 20d Gender: Male Location: Hills District, NSW Posted 24/07/19 03:26 AM Share Posted 24/07/19 03:26 AM Holy cow! Diagnosing a faulty turbocharger is not very hard if you know what you are doing. Sounds like the mechanic caused the problem and does not know how to fix it. I know tuners/workshops in Sydney who see problems with Barra's all the time - they charge a fixed amount to diagnose, and then come up with fixed cost solutions before proceeding. $5k for this is ridiculous! Yet you seem to think this is allright... like those hostages who develop attachment to their captors... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
