We are at 165,000 miles and the last time I had it in for service, I was told the variable vane device was acting slow, hanging up possibly. I guess the actual spinning turbo part was fine. Anyway, we were in Rapid City, SD, getting ready to head east, and the truck went into a reduced power mode, almost wouldn't move. We were able to get the trailer relocated to a different campground and into the Chevy dealer. They had the turbo overnighted from Denver, started working on it Wednesday afternoon, and we got it back Friday afternoon, almost $3,300 lighter in the wallet.
