Intercooler air pipe had a fissure (crack) so air was escaping and the mixture between gasoline and air was abnormal - 400 $ just for the pipe (with sensors inside). A water pipe was also in need of being replaced - 50 $ The battery of the car was replaced - 200 $. The software for the engine was reinstalled because the engine would 'die' several times when starting the car - 150$. The rest was manpower (labour). |
