After searching the site recently for advice on the annoying problem of the "limp home" mode I took my car to my son's garage where he kindly had a quick look for me and guess what, my intercooler has split. I was hoping it was only a pipe but it's definitely a split.
What are the options? bearing in mind I'm not into modding, I love the car for what it is and can't justify the cost to myself, I'm sounding far too serious aren't I.
Anyway, advice is required and any advice is most welcome.
I have completed some research through the site and have seen the custom job, very nice by the way; I've found an intercooler for about £140, is that cheap? and need to know how difficult the job will be. My son is an apprentice and hasn't touched turbo's yet so he's not in a position to complete the job without assistance.
I'm also assuming all the oil on my undertray has come from this problem.
In short, help! Regards
Damien
