    Yeh I was a bit angry but in the end it's a car, might be a bit of money down the drain but once i finished i wont have to worry again,

    Well i went to get new lifter's he said bit more serious than that, 3 mechanics said lifter's and pistons snapped and sounds like the rod going crazy, on the way to where it getting stored, started blowing flames from oil, then turbo fully went with nice white clouds then a nice loud heavy noise then oil puissing out of the engine, and the oil pressure gauge was going crazy.
    So time get motor out sand her back new paint job and engine
    not in a rush to get it all done, if i go steady i will go proper but if i rush ahaha i stuff things up
