You say your turbo dying, what symptoms? Mine was blowing white smoke. Turbo shaft loose oil leak into exhaust......lol
top overhaul
- Thread starter kurt_629
- Start date
to be frank, I don't know what are the tell sign or symptoms of a dying turbo.
if you recall correctly, I can't boost well in the past 2 years.
turn out to be a faulty ecu, each time when I tried to, the whole engine will choke.
only recent, a change of rechipped ecu, then the boost is normal at 1 bar.
of course, with a new toy, I tried to boost as much as I could..
excited like a small boy although we are old.
the boost has dropped over time, from 1 bar to 0.5 and over the last weekend, it went back to 0.8 after sending to the mechanic.
my mechanic was telling me that it just a matter of time before the turbo bid bye bye to me.
the cause is probably the faulty ecu, when the spooling starts, it was stopped.
of course, still can play around.
since I am thinking of doing an overhaul, I was exploring to see what is a good replacement.
ok.. the painful part has come:

Not bad for the price...Why not overhaul n service turbo first...Run the engine then go for 20g..
Turbo is mechanical, I don't think anything wrong if not boosting. Usually boost control is the wastegate or if you have any leaks.to be frank, I don't know what are the tell sign or symptoms of a dying turbo.

My 2 cases. Waste gate spring broke, can only get 0 boost as all leak out, then vacuum hose broke, waste gate was shut tight, my boost went into 1.3 region. After repair back to standard 0.6 for VR..
yeah, that would be a cheaper alternative.
spend RM1.5k first, to do up the engine and leaks.
the turbo upgrade/repair, is just a tag along.
helps to save some penny amount on the labor.
repair of the turbo, cost like RM1.4k
while buying a new one, AVS TD05 20g, cost RM1.8k..
*sigh.. need to find money*

I notice initially, the understanding was only a top overhaul but based on his quotation, it has become a full overhaul.
he has help me to save cost by repairing the ISC, the clutch, flywheel. (*hopefully)
a metal gasket of 2.0mm, is quality.
free ecu wiring do up, my current is a mess, like bee hoon..

is it?Change pistons become full overhaul loh......hhahahhaha
sorry, I really don't know that's why I seeking your advise.
Its not really changing pistons, its changing of piston rings .
please view again..
You say it is becoming a full overhaul, just missing the pistons loh! Usually a top overhaul almost same work as full overhaul unless you do a De-carbonize job only. To change the rings all got to come out
yeah, double confirm with him.
it will be a full overhaul, like you mentioned, since its out.
he will charge me the same while doing the full.
actually, I very fearful..
not that I don't trust him..
I am worried, by doing , will I get to see more cans of worms..
*stress*
I go and smoke better..
