Better / Best Turbo for MKII Estate 2.0 TDI PD Engine

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

 

I've been going through my recently acquired MKII Estate TDI 2.0 PD and compiling a tasty list of things I would like recommendations for.

 

The most pressing it seems is a potential turbo replacement. This is due to a repeating turbo fault which puts the car into a kind of 'limp mode', no lights or warnings, just no turbo.

 

Im all up for a fix if its a common or simple problem, but as the car is quite low mileage, I was thinking a replacement would be worth the investment.

 

I've had a good look through the forums and cant find a thread on this particular subject, but please, if Ive missed one just link it below.

 

I'm also thinking about a suspension upgrade at some point if anyone wants to jump in on this as well?

Is it an L&K by any chance?

Its not T2000, its an elegance...

Would try some turbo cleaner first such as archoil as you may find it is just cloggged up turbo vanes.  You just add it to a full tank of fuel and give it some beans once the engine is fully warmer up.
