[scas]

hi, i have a 115 mk6 rwd and i think the turbos on its way out, my spare parts van has a perfect one but its a 90 not a 115- looks like its the same, but is it?

[bambi mk 1]

It may or may not look different but it will work Stickers are for pussies

[scas]

so are all the 2.4 turbos the same-apart from the evil 135

[bambi mk 1]

I have change plenty of them and the work .The mounting holes for the actuator may be in a different position but use the actuator from the spare turbo 135 are a no no in every sense of the word

im answering my own question but laziness is important- no need to take off the manifold- take off rubber pipes and 8 small bolts and 5 minutes its in your hand-not sure i needed to take off 2 of the bolts

Because some moron before he bought the van put a new turbo on it and it didn't run afterwards, he has had lots of fun with the maf sensor not being connected and lots of smoke, it could be possible that the person who fitted the turbo didn't put a vnt turbo on (the one for the 125ps tdci) the code he has now relate to maf, map and boost.

No because yours is probably fwd, and so will be a tdci, so you need a turbo from the engine.

Am I right in thinking Mr Ake that the tdci (fwd) has a different turbo to the tddi (fwd). N
