Engine

ENGINE IN THE BIN

New engine Supplied and fitted 10 hours

BUILT complete

Was that expensive for the customer?

2006 Golf Turbo blowen up

Hope you're gonna find the rest of that turbine before you give it back to me Robbo

i imagine most of the swarf and leftovers will be floating around inside the inlet manifold seeing as its on the coldside of the compressor wheel ???

lost a 4.5k cosworth engine when the compressor wheel decided to come loose in similar fashion to your turbo was gutted !!

hopefully youll be good though with yours and a lot luckier than me

I,ve found some bits and blasted out inter cooler
and Exhaust all the inter cooler pipes full of Engine oil NOT NICE

Thinking of taking the inlet pipes and check for mettle tracers possibility the inlet manafold off to grrrrrrr

2 more pix turbo

Found the rest of the turbine on the subframe by the rack
Got new Turbo 3pm
Turbo's back on now
pix up tomorrow

jobs a goodun mate

Here we go the jobs done

Needs a TPS now tho

PIX Other half of turbine

Last pix from me

Built and running codes

That's nice and clean!

i imagine the tps switch will have been damaged by metal fragments possibly due to ingress !!!
and i suspect a similar failure to mine (compressor wheel nut coming loose )
which in turn kills turbo instantly ..


still looks like you doing a cracking job there mate and keep us posted

Nice one Robbo, I'll wait for the call.
