Currently the car is at a foreign repair facility here in Lexington, KY. The name of the facility is: Scheller Automotive, (859) 225-6277.

Researching these turbo chargers on my own, I discovered they are commonly failing and people have experienced similar issues with the turbo and exhaust smell. This...

I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE TO PASS A VEHICLE WHEN THE ENGINE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER AND TOOK OVER 30 SECONDS TO REACH 40 MILES PER HOUR. I OBSERVED THE SPEED WARNING LIGHT AND THE AMBER ?CHECK ENGINE? LIGHT COME ON. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE TO PULL OFF OF THE ROAD BUT COULD ONLY DRIVE APPROXIMATELY 35-40 MILES PER HOUR UNTIL THE NEXT EXIT WHICH WAS OVER 2 MILES AHEAD (AS CARS UNSAFELY HAD TO SUDDENLY STOP BEHIND ME ON I-95 AS I MANEUVERED BACK INTO THE RIGHT TRAVEL LANE) SINCE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER. ONCE OFF OF THE ROAD (THE RAIN HAD CEASED) I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE 74 MILE AN HOUR SPEED WARNING AND THE AMBER ?CHECK ENGINE?...
