Message: [QUOTE="Corb@CorbinShipping, post: 1406102, member: 2499"] Ok, so I got into a wreck with a Scion back in June..... He T-boned me, first hitting the front axle on the passenger side, then dragging down my doors a and cab, and bed side, and dually fenders. No issue, because that happened in Savannah, GA, and I drove it home to NC. I had to drive pretty slow, as the adjustable track bar was bent pretty bad, and my alignment was off... I dealt with the insurance co, and got it to a body shop that I had used before. 3 months later, when my truck is almost ready for pickup, they call me and tell me that my turbo is blown. It just started blowing extreme amounts of white smoke. The alignment shop that they brought it to, replaced over a gallon of oil in the engine, that had all blown out the tail pipe. Everything seemed to point to a blown turbo.... I started it, and attempted to limp it home, and within 1/4 mile, I heard a subtle "POP", and the engine stalled, and I had it towed home, again, I still assumed blown turbo... Only code that would pop up was: P0016 Crankshaft/camshaft misalignment/sync Insurance wont cover my turbo, so, I had one stashed that Gare was kind enough to keep after his turbo swap, and Jason 2nd day aired it to me (at $180, thanks bro!) And I swapped the turbo out. Now, there is a bit of shaft play on the old turbo (after 278,000 miles of abuse, I figured it would be worse. New turbo installed, and no start.... P0016 Crankshaft/camshaft misalignment/sync hmmmmm so, if a new turbo didn't get her running, what in the f#@^..... Upon further inspection, I found the issue... When they lowered the bed, they crushed my CCV tubing in between the bed and frame rails. Now it all makes sense. Oil blowing everywhere, as the air built up pressure inside the block, and they turbo was the only place that it could escape.... so, I am about to get nasty with the body shop, as to liability for this new damage.... But, what in the hell is wrong with my truck now? I just want it running... I checked all plugs, removed and replaced the Cam sensor (what a pain in the azz....) and I have zero chance of swapping out the crank sensor (as I am not double or triple jointed) Anyone ever seen this? Anyone know what in the hell could be the culprit? Is my engine most likely shot? Or is this a quick easy fix (not likely, as I am not that lucky....) [/QUOTE]
