Cars back In the garage!

So,after resolving the issue with the turbo in my seat, I was looking forward to an action packed summer full of road trips and car meets. It seems the car gods are somewhat displeased however. After putting it in for my first MOT. I figured I wouldn't have anything to worry about. Hahaha! Was I wrong! So the tester comes bak to me saying that my car has failed. I'm confused, naturally, after àll,it's a 3 year old car. So I start panicking. It must be something I've done! Is it the brakes? I replaced them a couple of months ago. They seem alright?  Could it be the suspension. I just fitted new anti roll bars and bushes....nope. it's the emissions! Emissions! It's a freaking 3 year old car! How can it be emissions!  They say it's my induction kit and exhaust. So, like a muppet I take them off and retest. The results are worse! So off to another test. They tell me it's the lambda sensors. Then something clicks. The turbo, it's haunting me! So off to seat I go. No way  am I paying to fix something g that should have been rectified months ago! They tell me they're booked till may. So it's sat in their yard waiting until they have a spare 15 minutes. That was a week ago. I'm still waiting.....
