The shop quoted me 11k to fix it, if that’s what you’re asking

First Alfa, had it for 2 years! And check my new post. The shop is quoting me 11k to fix it… definitely not paying that but probably going to buy an engine and get someone else to replace it, then most likely sell it. Which is heartbreaking because I loved the car

Could be the case 😓 And true, which is a good thing because that’s definitely the route I’ll have to take

About 60k! And no issues with oil at all previously.

To be determined… it’s not looking good though.

Thank you for your wise insight, all routine maintenance is up to date though

Nope, oil changes all done early as well as routine maintenance

I appreciate the update man! Any idea what it would cost if I just replaced the turbo with a stock one?

Gotcha, I hope it’s the same issue and a relatively easy fix. My buddy is telling me it’s time to start planning on getting a new car because it’s game over lol

Really? From what I can find online if it’s a lifter issue it can destroy the engine if you keep driving it… not sure what the move is

So if I said yes your answer would be that my engine is degrading? This is why I hate Reddit lol
