(send me link if my retarded ass missed it) It’s a confirmed rod knock, most likely due to a spun bearing. When my car was there getting the turbo replaced, they said how I had almost no oil in the crankcase, not even a drop on the dipstick. My guess is time caught up with it. ---

WTF When did this happen? I thought it was just a bad turbo? Is this another incident? If there is no oil in the crank case, they are most likely going to fuck you ☹ ---

There was no oil in the crankcase after the turbo oil return line split and spewed it everywhere back in January. That’s when the turbo went. This is a whole new ball of wax. ---

Oh. ☹ Well, if there was oil in your case and the engine spun a bearing, they should be replacing it assuming you have warranty. ---

They should cover it. They covered the turbo due to the oil line leak and this problem is almost directly related as it caused a lack of oil pressure to the rest of the engine especially main and rod bearings. LGTs are 2.5L boxer 4… pretty sure ---

I’m a flat four lol. EJ255FTL. The crankcase was to the fill line on the dipstick when the motor went. I provided copies of receipts of all oil purchases w/ filters and new crush washers for the drain plug. ---
