Well, I was puling onto the highway about 10 minutes after leaving work when I heard a loud noise come from my engine bay and then I lost all oil pressure so I quickly turned the car off, pulled to the shoulder, and had it towed back home where I discovered that the lower connection of the turbo oil feed line had been blown clean off of the block.
I haven't done any further analysis so I have no idea as to what could be the true culprit of this problem but my next door neighbor is a serious mechanic and has done many engine rebuilds so we may be ordering a built long block to replace it with. If you guys have any idea as to what could have caused this problem, that would be appreciated.
I don't believe it had anything to do with my tune, but I do believe that for those who have a summer tune on your car. Just do a simple pull and have your tuner check and make sure everything looks good for this roll in of colder weather. it will take 20 minutes tops and it may end up saving you a lot of money.
The car has 29,903 miles and regular oil changes from the day it left the lot, everything was kept up with including all other fluids and general upkeep, the car had been running perfectly that morning.
I will keep this thread updated as the information is found and decisions are made as to what is going to ultimately happen to the car.
