TOO MUCH TRUST

[CHRISTIAN POLLITT <POLLITT@mdaiss.mdc.com>]

A few days ago I responded to a mailer regarding turbo care.....I
changed my oil on a regular basis and had never had a problem with it
until........

The story is as follows....recently the car was not responding well ie.,
no pickup..so my initial thought was the turbocharger....one mechanic
told me it was the turbo and realizing the potential damage moneywise I
went for a second opinion...this time at the dealership. 

Deciding I would suck up the loss in terms of labor costs to have them
look at the car was well worth it to me.....I mean why not trust the dealer
at least in terms of their mechanics etc...

Well they told me the car had a host of minor problems vacum hoses,
caps, rotor.....etc and they could not place the exact problem but there
was nothing wrong with the turbo......"if there is something wrong with it
it is something we have never seen." 

OK so I find a new mechanic.....very good and relaible....works on
Volvos, but specializes in Audi in his spare time......he was working on
the minor problems and then started to do some other gen
maitenance....took the car for a spin and tells me later the turbo is
guarenteed shot...

Well I don't want to waste any more of your time but.....HEISHMANS AUDI
and BMW in ARLINGTON VIRGINIA CANNOT BE TRUSTED...anyone in the
area care to respond
