little info

our cars are so smart it blows my mind. I got an oil leak from my turbo while driving and the oil drained real low. Not low enough to get a low oil light but the car wouldn't go over 4000 rpm. I was like what the **** so I took it to the dealer and he said that if the oil drops too low the car will not allow the car past 4000 rpm to keep it from killing the engine. I did not know this but now I do. Just thought I would share.

I didn't notice the leak cause it came from the turbo and was running all under the car. I was driving from frankfurt at 110mph. Had no idea It was leaking. Ramstein is great and I love the autobauhn but I am readdy to get back to the states. I'll be going to cali in sept. Travis AFB
