EOI:- WHO CAN REPAIR A TURBO THAT'S BURNING OIL?

Postby Grind » July 28th, 2012, 1:54 pm

My mechanic said that the turbo on my A4 is burning oil and causing me to top up too often.

Anyone know where I can get this fixed?

Personally, I would get a second opinion first.. How old is the engine, how many km?
Do you have any soot on your bumper coming out of the exhaust..

How does the mechanic know that its the turbo and not bad piston rings?

The internet will surely be of use..
I BET there is a turbo repair kit out there selling for it.. if its the 1.8t, you can check out the VW parts lists etc..

I wonder if these cars use Garrett Turbos? If so, the local agent for them is Sookhai's Diesel in Chaguanas - and they do turbo rebuilds.
