my turbo has been cutting out and when i start my car its powerless untill its been running for a few minutes but even then its making an awful noise. i had a quote from my local vwaudi specialist and they said a new turbo and fitting with vat was about £800. where can a get a refurbished turbo from as its getting worse every day and i cant afford a brand new one.
hello to every one as well as this is my first of many posts. a
all the best andy
please can some one just advise me where to get one from as im really unsure.
id realy appreciate the help or advice as im in stuck at the moment.:confused:
Hi , go on turboactive.com, i got one for my PD115 there aswell for 500 ish including VAT for a BRAND NEW turbo, they will require your old turbo after,but thats no use to you.
also they send it next day usually which is very good.
Get a custom made one by powerflow or somewhere. Then u at least get to choose wether it sounds like a raging subaru impreza or not. Chip and remap at the same time ud b surprised how diff th car sounds and pulls. Personally, id go n buy a 1.8turbo or something quicker.....the amount thats all gonna cost u, you could buy a faster golf

Make sure it's the turbo that's at fault first though.
I have heard a few guys who used this outfit..
