Default Check engine light saga

Two weeks ago, the dealer replaced the coolant temp. sensor which was the supposed culprit for an ever glowing check engine light. By the time I got home from the dealer, it is glowing brightly once again.

So today, had both turbo by-pass valves replaced. Dealer said the diaphragms were leaking and causing vacuum leaks.

Engine response and power has improved, and the light is off...for now. Kinda got used to the little yellow bugger.

Being a guy with a 97 that's off warranty I almost crap my pants when "Old Yeller" lights ups. ;-)
