Just an update,Yet again today my civic lost all power above 35mph so i took
it straight to honda garage,They said the computer still hasn't reported any
faults but they are going to order a new turbo for it.Very odd that the
turbo has only lasted 11000 miles,Very worrying how long the new one is
going to last.

They only get paid if they replace something. They might as well replace
something EXPENSIVE. I wonder (again) if they have a clue?

11K miles. The thing's still very much under warranty. Honda's paying for
it whether it's labor or parts.
