I currently own a 2008 Skoda Octavia 2.0 TDI. I'm about to replace my DMF soon however my turbo vanes have now started sticking.

I'm not mechanically gifted so I'm not going to be doing the Mr Muscle trick either.

I've also tried the Wynn turbo cleaner additive too which didn't help.

I'm obviously going to ask the garage myself but so I don't get my pants pulled down.

My question is whilst the DMF is being replaced can they easily gain access to the turbo and either clean it or replace it with a reconditioned one or is it an entirely separate job?

Has anyone any idea of costs to sort the turbo? (I'm aware the DMF is around the £800 mark). Thank you.

Re the turbo vanes I have had success with  Archoil AR6400-D MAX Pro Diesel Engine, Turbo, DPF Cleaner but I only got the overboost limp mode twice.  my garage recommended this as a 1st option.

Garage will almost certainly tell you they need to replace the turbo, which will be a lot more expensive than the Mr muscle option.
