940 (91) turbo, garrett turbo...
has been blowing oil into the intercooler for a while..up to 1/2 ltr per 100 miles if heavy boost is used...
going into the shop to have the turbo done (i just cant find the time...) 2 options:-
1. Brand new turbo £400 + the tax + labour (fitting)
2. Rebuild £170 + the tax + the labour (fitting)- providing its just a seals/bearing job, any more will cost more.
both jobs will be plus oil pipes, oil, antifreeze etc...
turbo leaks oil, but holds boost (8psi) has little detectable play and no nasty sounds (does 'whine' a bit when spooling up)
whats peoples thoughts...
