hello every one
I just got me an 1995 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD so I though I may join here and get some info about these motors and about turbo cars as I know nothing about turbos.
the car have a few problems, and I'm going to need some help.
I live in Fridley MN. :)

Hello, what sort of problems does your car have?

Re: whaassssssup
 

AC clutch pulley
valve cover gasket

and I just read the CrankWalk problem on these cars and that get me worried

Re: whaassssssup
 

The valve cover gasket is a cheap and easy fix. Just get the gasket, half-moon, and 4 spark plug donuts from a Mitsu dealership and waalaa, no more leaks. As for the crankwalk, don't worry about it unless you get it. You could also have a shop (LSE) or someone nearby (JET) check your crank-play for you to see if you have signs of a nearing crankwalk fatality or not. If you do an aftermarket clutch, stay away from the ACT 2600 (or any other high preasure preasure plate system) to help prevent it.

i just noticed that little video, thats hilrious

Re: whaassssssup
 

its an auto with over 99K miles on it.

Re: whaassssssup
 

Worrying about crankwalk is like worrying about getting a terminal illness. You can check for it and worry about it but ultimately it does you no good. The best thing you can do is have a plan in place just in case it happens.
