Hi Our 159ti 2.4 recently blew its turbo damaging 2 pistons so we are having the short end replaced entirely and replacing 2 damaged valves. :cry: Our much respected mechanic insists we replace the Inter Cooler, Oil Cooler & Inlet Manifold as to remove any risk of logded turbo debris entering...

Hi, After cleaning my MAP sensor this afternoon (it was heavily clogged) i did some reading and on other forums people mention resetting the ECU to get the most benefit. Is this necessary ? - if i do it can it have any affect on the new map i have on the car ? Too soon to say it it's helped...
