Hi ppl,as my mechanic is currently out of town i thought to post the problem i had last night here in hopes that som1 can tell me its not as bad as it sounds).During driving the car suddenly started losing power and i can hear something broken rattling(my guess is that some of the turbine blades have broken off),now the part that had me worried the most(besides the repair and/or replacement of the turbine) is that the car has started to leave "black" smoke.I have immediatelly stopped and on the minimum the car seems to be working fine(gues the turbine kicks in at around 1800/rpm) but the black smoke had me worried.So is it possible that the "only" thing gone is the turbine or do i have to take a pill to calm myself and prepare to cough off a s...load of money for the engine repair?
It's a bmw320td compact(150bhp)

Thanx for the reply,the car is currently parked where i stopped and as soon as my mechanic comes back i will tow it to him for repairs.Just hope the turbo is the only problem.Just a question is it possible to fit a bigger turbo on 320td engine and if it is which one would you recommend.
