    Past couple of days have been hearing a significant airflow/whooshing noise when turbo kicking in...thought I had leaky vents/drains and was picking up noise from the engine bay.

    Then today coming back through the blue mountains from lithgow, foot flat to the floor and only doing 30km/h up the hill with black smoke pouring out.

    Thought I'd blown a turbo, much swearing to be had.

    Pulled over, opened the bonnet and noticed the hose from the intercooler to the turbo had a hole in it bigger than the one in the ozone layer above us.

    10 minutes, a coke can, some duct tape and some more swear words and off I went again...everytime the turbo kicks in it sounds like a cat is being tortured, but it got me home!

    My radiator weep turned into a leak leaving puddles when i stop and park. Have 2 trips to Adelaide and a camping trip to Sea Lake in the next 2 weeks, so new radiator has jumped the que on the repair list and buggered the budget.

    Drove up to a friends farm in Gingin today, had a little play off road on some serious climbs and WOW what a performer. Was going to have a go in his V8 but it wouldn't start. Shame that, would have liked to compare the two. Absolutely loving it.
