Message The passenger side one. I'm stock with 140k miles. I just ran a 13.9. I drove it 2 more times after that and then it has sat for months since. My driver side spins but not freely. No matter how fast I try to spin it, it stops immediately. I figure after warming up and getting some warm oil through it loosens up and operates like new. This would explain why the turbos are noisy when the car is cold, and then when its warmed up you can't hear them at all. But then maybe its like this because its been sitting for so long; I don't think its ever sat for this long before. I dunno. I didn't post in technical because I want an answer now I won't be able to sleep if I don't hear some professional opinions. thanks,
