????????????? Doesn't sound too good ! How many miles are on it?When you push it hard it wears faster.Get a compression test done some where other than the dealer.Check around in the engine compartment and see if it was cleaned to make it look good.Feel around with your hand in tight places that a power washer can't get to and see if it's OILY.Check all the rubber exhaust hanger to see if their good.Listen for timing chain noise a idle at the pulley end of the valve cover.It will be a loud clickety-click noise.The turbo will still push a low compression engine/and make it seem good.Check the oil and see if it has a burnt smell Last of all,what does your gut felling tell you?Check ALL the power accessories/cruise controll/ A/C /Back-up lights.
