SweetTea41 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 CEL came on and gave this code. As well as my turbo making this sort of squeak when I let off the pedal to shift. Going to inspect next weekend. If anything major happened I'm gutting the car and selling or crushing the body. I no longer have anymore funds to put into it.

xt2005bonbon Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Sounds like the turbo has been starved of oil. Probably on its last leg now. Yeah, don't drive it. Check turbo for shaft play (probably has some) and inspect banjo bolt filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 That is known as the "death code" for turbo's. Do not start the engine until you have checked the shaft play and removed the banjo filter. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
