My wife bought me a used '92 9K turbo for Christmas at a charity auction. She paid $1800 for it.It was in immaculate shape, no dents great original paint perfect leather interior. The problem was it needed a tranny (5 speed). We had that rebuilt at $1000, next I replaced all of the vacuum hoses and other incidentals $400, then came the DI cassette and radiator hoses $450, middle muffler $175, and yesterday the ETS computer $1350. This car has cost me in reapir almost double of what she paid. Question is: Is there a light at the end of the tunnel or have I got myself into a money pit? Oh, and yes the tranny started making a whinning noise in all gears and a chatter in reverse! Any and all suggestions considered.
