The turbo went out at 130,000. I had bought this car used and later realized it should be classified as a lemon!

On 95S from Washington DC, during rush hour, going up a slight incline, the check engine lite came on and car slowed then the lite went out but when ever I tried to speed up the same thing kept going on.
