1991 Eagle Talon TSI AWD review from North America
"High maintenance and performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Have replaced the front rotors 4 times.
Replaced the turbo 3 times.
Replaced the radiator once.
Put a short block engine in at 53,000 miles.
Replaced the ECM (electronic control modular-brain) once.
Replaced a harmonic balancer and hatch gas supports once.
General comments?
Great car. I recommend to anyone to upgrade to cross drilled front rotors. I found mine at Olympia motor parts in Virginia. Most work was done by the dealer under the 7/70 warranty. Also I recommend Michlen MX4 VR tires. Great holding power and long life.
