:eek:
 
From a 2004 Accord I-CTDi oil pump chain snapped!!
 
Ouch probably down to poor maintenance and wrong grade oil.
 
What symptoms preceeded this occurrence ??

Any steadily increasing noises or just a sudden clunk. Did the engine get shut down quick enough to preserve the bearings & turbo?
 
I believe it was over time the noise got worse and worse. I bought the car like this cheap to break for parts. Ive removed the turbo and its in good condition.
