Hope it all works out well for you mate.
Shite dude, thats rubbish.
Dude thats sucky sucky! But on the other hand... hmmmm....![]()
Your probably better off refurbing your existing turbo Ed. Should work out cheaper!
Hmmmmdidn't think of that although I can get a hybrid K04 for £850 there abouts.
Although its tempting don't think i'll replace the standard turbo if it isn't fooked as knowing my luck there will be something else wrong as well and costs will go throught the roof....![]()
Seems very strange to send away a turbo to get tested. This will cost you. Is it worth it?
Its either obviously fecked or not surely??
What tests are they doing on it?
what do they think is wrong with it?
I'd put my money on it being turbo rather than head gasket. I can see it might be possible for a turbo to leak water through seals internally without showing any outside signs (other than heavy condensation in the exhaust) Bettter pressure tested properly than done in an amateur way so the seals definitely blow....![]()
I'm doubtful, if the turbo was seriously goosed, you boost would be down. Got any recent logs?
If that's the case, I think it's possible your problems are unrelated.
