What does your shop say?

they are thinking air leak near the turbo, we are headed for a smoke test...as the major chep comes before the motor starts we are thinking it is not a turbo

Always nice to hear a happy ending.

We are seeing this a lot in the boxsters as well with spark plugs backing out slightly and causing the chirp.
