the turbo on my sons audi a3 2.0 tdi destroyed itself and i replaced it with a recon unit from London turbos ,was great when first fitted but after about a week it started to whine and has been like that for a couple of months, but i'm getting paranoid that its going to go again.
i'm not suggesting they sold me a bad turbo, i'm thinking maybe a bit of shrapnel off the old turbo has been sucked through and damaged it, even though i stripped out the intercooler and pipework and flushed out, pointless trying to warranty it as you have to have receipts for fitting and new oil feed pipes which i don't have.
i've checked all the pipes for leaks and everything is good so i'm sure its the turbo thats the problem
so I'm thinking of replacing just the core ,does anyone know where i can get a decent core from, cheers
