Turbo not


So, this happened: yesterday on the drive home from Metro, the check engine light came on, the engine ran really rough and white smoke billowed out of the exhaust.

This kind of thing is never A Good Sign.

I had it towed to my mechanic, and it seems the turbo charger has died. And it’ll cost $2500 to replace it. Plus new spark plugs.

And, if I’m lucky, they can get the part from New Jersey on Monday and install it.

Which means I’m stuck in the People’s Republic over the weekend without a car.

Yay. /s
