Re: Turbo oil leak
So it looks if the guy that gave me the verbal quote were abit optimistic.marius1968 wrote:2k is cheap for a rebuild in P.E we pay up to 4k if not more. Might have to send my one to JHB
They done a repair kit that got all the bearings and seals in.
Exchanged my compressor wheel as it had some damage to the fins.
Pressure test.
High speed balancing.
And very high labour - if your specialised you could probably charge what you feel like.
Invoice attached
But now installing with a turbo protector just for the peace of mind...

Re: Turbo oil leak
Glad you sorted. I did not give you an earfull. I asked that becuase you kept on wondering about things in the engine rebuild. If it was done right and you were sure and confident of that you should not have been asking those questions.
