since this info isnt easily obtained and it requires dismantling a turbo to get these numbers, thought I would share. compressor inducer 37.7 exducer 52 turbine inducer 52 exducer 42.5 the most modern turbo I could find so far is a garret gt2554r with almost identical turbine specs, ball bearing and much larger waste gate, too bad it costs more then the car!

When you get a bunch of wheel slip the computers will often set wheel speed sensor codes. Happens literally every time we run cars up in the air on a lift. They will clear on their own when it doesn't see the fault for X number of drive cycles. GD

So I've had a odd noise from the passenger rear end for a few weeks. Got worst when turning so I checked and repacked both rear wheel bearings. Didn't fix it. So today I went to swap the axles, and found my problem. Car was factory axles, which have a rubber cover over top of the steel straps that hold the cv boots on. Somehow some mud had gotten under it, it was rubbing bottom of the shock! Never would of noticed it, but my spare axles didn't have the cover. Taking a closer look I noticed there was a shiny spot on the outer one. And sure enough shiny spot on the shock.

That'll work - although any national parts store can scan it for free and easier. With a mechanic - it's taking away from their ability to generate income to ask them to do something that simple that can be done free and easy elsewhere. I'd rather know the code before I talk to the shop about fixing/repairing.

Good information! Easy - Have her get the check engine light code scanned. It's free at any national chain - Advance Auto Parts, NAPA, Auto Zone, OReilly...etc. All of them come right out and scan the code for free for you. You do nothing, you pay nothing. Tell her to write down the code they scan, like P0301 or whatever it is. We don't want the person's diagnosis or distilled feedback, we want the actual code. The check engine issue disables those other systems and causes those other lights - very common. So you start there - read the check engine light and ignore everything else. Maybe. My guess is all the slush ice snow may have caused local humidity and excessive moisture around ignition components in the engine bay in which case you'd get a "Cylinder misfire code" - P0301...or 2...3...or 4 for which cylinder is problematic. But there's no point in guessing - read the codes first.

There is no adjustment for that. It would require reprogramming the ECU and pre-99 models are not even flash capable so it would need a custom EPROM written for it. It's really not going to hurt anything or cause any excessive wear. The EJ22 will easily go 300k. GD
