I was over £600 about 5 years ago to have the turbo replaced on my Honda Civic!

I had a front blow out at 90 in a Carlton estate. Barely noticed the difference, it handled so badly any way. No drama though, just steered onto the hard shoulder. What were you doing to roll it?

If it has been serviced up to now, Id be onto VW to see if they will make a goodwill gesture towards it, failing that, get onto the local vw forums and see if you can get a cheap used turbo. Could save you a fair bit.

Petrol and a match Tommo????

"Hello, is that Zurich? You'll never believe what's happened. Some wee bazza has set my lovely VW on fire, shocking behaviour, I'm truly gutted, it was immaculate, ran like a dream, now its gone!"
