Turbo stopped producing boost and exhaust was leaking non stop from the wastegate. We ordered a used replacement turbo, but the company in question sent us the wrong part three times. My model uses a TD04-16T and they kept sending us TD04-14Gs. Probably cost me an extra $300-400 in labor the first time before they realized it was the wrong part. My car sat in the shop for a good 3 weeks before I gave up on getting a new-used unit and just sent the original out to get rebuilt. Gotta say, I was impressed with the quality and turnaround time from the guys from XSBoost in Ohio. Unfortunately, that was just the beginning of my nightmares with this car.
