Steve can you give me some insight on the whining issue? My car smokes, first time I took it to the dealer smoking horridly they said it was the PCV and they replaced it... seemed well and didn't smoke, then about 3 weeks later it started smoking at long idle again, like 15 20 minutes.
I took it into dealer ONCE (after first smoking fix) and showed service guy, he saw and confirmed, I couldn't drop it off right there since it was after work at 5:30 and they wouldn't have been able to give me a rental.
Took the car in 2nd time and the service guy no longer worked there.... had them check the car and it didn't smoke at ALL. Now sometimes it will smoke off and one, and once in a while my GF tells me she can hear the turbo whining and she'd never heard it before. So I've been wondering if the bearings are going. Was your whining on and off when it first started.... or was it consistent?
The whining was very loud, almost like a supercharger. You'll know what I mean. When the car was warmed up after 10-15 minutes, it went away and sounded normal.
