Hey guys,

Heard back from my dealership on the repairs boy it is a lot!! Glad I don't have to pay for this:

Vacuum Leak, most likely intake nipple they say.
Turbochrager control valve
"may need cat. converter"
Left side control arm is worn out
Right side control arm boot is torn
Cv joints
stabilizer links are loose
serpentine belt replacement (dry and cracking)
then oil leaks: rear main, turbo return line, crank sensor seal, front engine seal

That is it. Pretty hefty amount of work, luckily like I said I don't have to pay for it. But my question is, will the car be safe in the future of more damage from these problems that may lead to others?

If not, I will just sell it and be able to say I put such and such amount of money into it, plus I got the car way below book price.

- Jay
