Hmm can't see them well in the photos. How is the rust, on a scale of maine to florida?

Glad your issue is being resolved. Oil starvation and/or P0011 can be a nasty experience. You did a good job outlining the issues and things to watch for in your post, and I could not have said it better myself. Once the turbo bearing material is in the oil system, few folks get lucky and can...

Close it up, bought new ones

Anybody? Ordering new today...

At this point it sounds like you have almost no oil circulation. Pull the oil pan off and look for metal in the pan before you bother buying a new turbo. Pull the sump tube off and see if it's cracked/clogged/damaged. If all of that looks ok, I would pull a valve cover and pull off a cam cap...

They've been that way since I can remember. I stopped driving through there unless I absolutely had to in 2004 specifically because of their dicki$hne$$. After never being pulled over anywhere for anything, they decide to be the ones to pull me over and nitpick my car (2002 GTI with a chip tune...

Scot Sun Control in Bangor. He's done several of my cars over the years, and does an exceptional job. Stands behind his work, and can issue tint certificates when he does the job. He just did my truck before I took it to florida and it looks/functions great. I had jun do my 09 wrx and it had...

Hopefully not blown and in ok shape. Let me know what you have. Pm me

If it's mobil1 5w30 or some other terrible watery syn that might be your problem. Many subarus burn that like crazy. If you hooked up the catch can wrong and have created a large vacuum leak, that could also cause excessive burn. The car would probably run a little rough though. You can...

Do a fresh oil change. Make sure to check the oil once it is warm, and take note of where it is on the stick, and the date you did the change. Check your level every 250mi and record where it is on the stick. Make sure to check it the exact same way every time. Record how much oil you burn...

I think it's worth 25-27k if it's really that clean. After buying several subarus now and bringing them back to great shape, I can tell you it's not cheap, even just for parts. Having worked in shops I know how much a labor bill on top can easily double/triple/quadruple costs. This owner...

Or, you could just run a cat. Real rally cars run cats. Your car is not a racecar...

Perfect.

^lots of truth there....

I'm probably just going to slide around a bit and aim my new driving lights.  But that would be much later when I'm done w/ work for the day.

The valvetrain and injectors will be noisier than usual if it has sat for any length of time greater than a few days.  The longer it sits, the longer it takes to get back to normal levels.  My 05 has had a drivers side tick since it was new, and all of the valves are in proper adjustment. Most...

I don't blame you.  I'm like that too, but sometimes have to get out when I get stuck in a rut at my desk. I'm not going out to do anything crazy in the snow , because I don't want to break the car before the trip :-)

I'm doing work for sev hours, and am chained to this table eating delish food and getting work done at the same time. Multitasking is great.

Thanks for the pull!  Now here's a ticket for that exhaust.  Have a good day son  I've been out having some fun in the car.  It's all set for the VT challenge saturday.  I'm @ OHOP getting a bunch of work done for a few hours if anyone wants to come get some work done as well/eat some tasty...

Shitty. Someond help this guy out!
