That must have been fun to see roll out of the housing.  |
I was relieved that I was able to fix it but annoyed that the dealer never bothered to check the turbo as part of the trap-oxidizer recall. I did go to a local MB dealer to see if I could get a new turbo out of them seeing as the exhaust turbine had some damage. Since it's KKK turbo, finding a new turbine for it isn't so easy. However, it seems to work fine.
