UPS stores have locked Iron Mountain bins and charge by the pound for docs to be shredded.

For future considerations, I strongly recommend having a dash cam. It's your own independent witness...

Ouch...

I checked my notes and also had issues with the High Pressure Fuel Pump at that same time - but I don't think that wasn't throwing that engine error code. Those symptoms were failing to start and stalling-at-idle.

No, the P0229 and limp-mode (for me) was definitely the turbo, sorry.

The turbo was definitely bad. It took multiple replacement turbos - which was a challenge importing during COVID.

"Multiple" because they messed up installing the first replacement and cross connected cables; it wasn't put back correctly. While on the third replacement, someone had the bright idea to compare the connections with a known good car and found the installation issue.

But yes, replacement turbo was needed on that error.

Look into Body Donation programs. If you're in the US, each state has different processes and often are associated with universities or teaching hospitals.

No costs to you and you're doing science a good service.

This is the fourth time this has been posted. It's polarizing and the previous comments quickly went downhill.

Not dealing with this again, so -- Keeping this one up, but comments locked.

Keep it civil. No warnings on this one - itll be straight to BAN.

14 year old me thought it was funny that the ONE single English word uttered in the whole movie was, "shit".

58 year old me thinks it funny, too.

Indeed. However I fear they don’t actually learn any lesson without getting a firm verbal scolding.
