Turbo Replacements

Turbos are most commonly associated with diesels and high performance vehicles but are becoming more and more common due to the improvement they have on engine efficiency. A turbo intercepts waste gases leaving your vehicle before they exit through the exhaust, transfers this energy through one turbine to another situated in the air intake system and sends air through to your engine faster, thus improving engine efficiency and power.

A turbo part failure usually denotes an additional fault within the vehicle which requires investigation. These additional faults are known as turbo 'killers' and may mean costly repairs are needed to bring your vehicle back to good working order.



We understand the importance of having all the information available to you before you make a decision on a possible high value repair to your vehicle. In light of this, we have developed a process by which we can inform our customers of the problem, possible causes and the cost of the repairs before they decide how to move forward.



We will perform a diagnostic check on the vehicle which consists of using the symptoms described to pinpoint exactly what has caused the turbo failure. This diagnostic will allow us to judge the extent of the issues at hand. Following this the customer then has the following options:

- If you choose not to have repairs done then there will only be a £58.75 fee for the diagnostic
- You can remove the vehicle from our care with the aim to have it repaired at a later date. This option will mean the payment of the diagnostic fee but this can then be discounted from your bill when you return for the additional repairs - proof of diagnostic must be provided.
- Finally, if you choose to have the problem rectified there and then, there will be no diagnostic charge, just the cost of the turbo repair.
