Fitting Turbo? DIY possible?

Featured Replies

Basicly, my mates let me down fitting my turbo, how hard would it be to DIY it myself with a few extra hands? :o

Fitted mine, alone. Not difficult at all tbh. Fiddly reaching around the back of the engine, but not rocket science IMHO....

One of the easier jobs on a Fabia TBH. Hardest part is making sure all the boost pipes are sealed and tight.

don't forget to take some pics if you do decide to tackle this task as im sure it would go down well and then get it as a sticky.:)

Well i would be interested anyway.

Good luck

Right, should have someone fitting it. Jus one other question, what needs to be replaced? Gaskets? Bolts? Possibley oil pipe? Thanks
