Turbo Died

I in NY working, today pulling away from the toll booth, it squealed, began to smoke. Mr Turbo has left the building.
I am not unhappy with the truck, I am 126k, tuned, and would like to find a good diesel mechanic in the Tarrytown area or within a reasonable distance.

PM me if you know anyone in the area please.

Thanks,

Rich

dang sorry to hear that, how many of those miles was the truck tuned?

truck was tuned around 94,000. I found a mechanic who stated he has replaced quite a few...
he stated that the new turbos are refined, and it should not be an issue....

supposed to pick it up in a couple of days....
