MY CAR IS NOW OFFICIALLY UN-DRIVABLE!!!
Man... one thing after another... and I haven't even fixed the other things yet...
Were to start:
1. Bad Wastegate - Boost is jumping all over the place and is giving me throttle cut. Sort of like getting thrown into the windshield when it happens.
2. Turbo itself is going bad. (Starting to get a little bit of a rattle and grinding noise coming from it.
3. ABS False Activation (ABS will randomly kick in on the front left wheel when braking going under 10mph) No lights or anything on Dash.
4. JUST HAPPENED TONIGHT: Misfires (Flashing CEL) to the point that I can't drive it.
I am not sure what cylinder is misfiring yet. I am going to go get a code scanner tomorrow and figure it out.
Stupid Car pisses me off... Nothing but bad luck with it since I got down here... OH and to top it all off, I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX ANY OF IT!!!! (School)
SO If you would like to donate money to my FIX MY CAR fund, my paypal address is thepaintballguy@gmail.com

That sucks, man. Things really add up fast when you don't have a warranty. Hope everything goes okay for you. Let me know what kind of scanner you get, though. I've been trying to find one that doesn't require a laptop or a crapload of wires.

LOL Thanks Lazer... That wouldn't surprise me. If you know anyone selling normal ones LMK and I will buy them as soon as I get all this crap sold...
And yeah I think it's cursed to... All this crap, plus it getting broken into, plus all new brakes and control arms 2 months ago... GRRR makes me mad!

Cool...I didn't know you could do that. Is it kind of the same as a VAG-COM?

No, it just reads codes and can some of them can erase them.
