Hi,
I am the original owner of an 06 V10 with 60k miles and still lover it. Correct 60k
Right now it has what seems to be a tandem pump leak and also oil in the passenger side intercooler. Turbos were already replaced at 38k miles.
Car runs fine, no power loss etc.
I probably need the engine out to not only replace the tandem pump but to inspect the turbos and probably have them remanufactured at that time.
The questions I have.....
1) Is it worth it to consider upgrading the turbos or is the tuning thing a nightmare nevermind the stresses on the vehicle components afterwards.
2) Is it worth considering replacing the turbos with new ones instead of having the existing ones remanufactured?
3) When the engine is down what else can I fix that is known to break at some point.
4) Parts source for tandem pump and whatever else would be appreciated.
My v10 is mint inside and I really enjoy having it, but not quite sure if spending more than 10 grand on it is worth it. My figure is 10 grand, but that can change pending what opinions I read.
Thanks guys!
