    Yesterday I got a bit bored and just had a browse on google to see if I could find any history of my 90, I ended up finding this photo which was a bit of a shock to say the least. Photo was taken in 2014 at the Suffolk Farmers Show where a local farm converted it to spread slug pellets with two...

    300tdi turbo - any hope of repair?

    Best to strip it down and check if a new CHRA is an option first as depending how bad the corrosion is on the compressor housing, if its too corroded then it may as well be a whole new turbo
