Unfortunately, they are the only garage in our small town that will work on a diesel, unless I take it to the dealer and pay much more.

I like bat guano! It's the best fertilizer! ;->

As much as I hate to say it, if you took it to the dealer it MAY actually SAVE you money by properly diagnosing the problem

Guano for thought !!

they do get the parts from the dealer. I called the dealer to find out about the prices and he asked about Stellar doing the work, I said yes, I was just a little confused about it including the labor. I guess I will just have to bit the bullett, have Stellar do it, then I will have their 2 year warrantee on the work.

Do I need to get my cool aid picture ready to post? I haven't got to use it in a while.

Do I have a FCA in my 2000? If fixing the TPS and the FCA,,, maybe that would help the surging? I'm sure if I continue to drive it and the waste gate on the turbo is not working right, I'll hurt my engine eventually. Correct?

Thanks!
