after about 22k miles, i started seeing black/blue smoke out the pipe when i started the car in the morning. Called the dealer he said it could be a bad turbo - turns out it was and the replaced it. Is this common after 20k miles? Hope not and can't imagine it is...
while at the dealer i noticed the paddles on the new 9-5's. responsiveness is the key and after driving the 9-3 loaner, i'm encouraged. I absolutely hate the auto that is in my '02. at 40mph stab your foot into it and .......................yawn................engine starts to scream and......weeee now we're going!!! unfortunately the grandma in the ford focus is 2 weeks in front of me at that point...
the new 9-3 seems much better and more so in the manual mode. so that's encouraging.
Has there been any rumors about the '05 9-5? i'm thinking that's about when my '02 will need replacement.
