My second turbo is blown, and every now and then I have to fill my car up with coolant. I was out driving it today and i was at a redlight and it died on me! It took me a while to get it started, and then when i pulled into a parking lot the car died again. What do you all think is wrong. Do you think that my blown turbo is making my car run like ****, or something else?

hopefully that turbo isnt blown, but just missing a vacuum hose somewhere. with two fd's you should know that adding coolant because the buzzer goes of every few weeks is an engine rebuild sign, dont feel special though, with all my up keep i have had 4 motors as have many others. i believe that leaking coolant into the combustion chamber causes hard starts and maybe leading to your car quiting. i feel for you though, i had to get a stranger crossing the street to help push my fd to the side of the road 3 days ago from a stoplight, in rush hour traffic. it'll happen to every fd owner....

The turbo wines when it is supposed to kick online. Its really loud. I hope it is not a rebuild! O well
