|  Re: Turbo... 2 days... spoke too soon See told you you should have sold it while it worked  Hope you get that sorted mate it's starting to sound like a complete pig and then some. Honestly might be worth quitting now and dropping it into that turbo specialist you mentioned ringwood way.

| Re: Turbo... 2 days... spoke too soon It is due to go into Westover on Friday (i'll drop it off the night before), and they were talking about taking the turbo out and checking all was well with it.... Octy 2 vrs tdi estate, 180bhp.... could make the drive to work a bit more fun - but how to I tell the gf I can't afford to insure her on it?!?! If Westover fail on this attempt, it is probably time to try a turbo specalist.. but I am not sure it is the turbo... but something that controls it.... (which I why I am hoping that a dealer who knows more about the engine should stand a better chance than a generic turbo place....) |

| Re: Turbo... 2 days... spoke too soon The turbo specialist will usually know about all the control systems too, but fair comment. You don't seem to be having much luck with the car matt
