After the time belt issues over Christmas, we've been battling with limp mode issues for a few months. A few cycles of the cleaning stuff from a very helpful garage haven't sorted it out, so now every time we hit 3000rpm in 3rd or 4th the limiter kicks in, and if we get the engine light reset it only takes one strong pull away onto a motorway to bring the light back on and limp mode back into play.
Garage has just quoted £1,380 inc VAT for new turbo (not a Fiat garage).
Reasonable? Worthwhile (08 Multi, but family of 6 so we definitely need something this size!)
Bear in mind we dropped over £2k on the car back end of last year so this is starting to turn into a money pit, but I have relatively little confidence that if we picked up another second hand it wouldn't potentially start to have similar issues.
