Audi 1.8T C5 model ..... stainless vacuum pipe that runs along the top of the engine (turbo side), I changed the turbo (on advice from many)....
turned out that pipe (which isn't straight and has bends at each end, can't see through it) was blocked with CARBON 🤦
a few Squirts of brake cleaner, and pokes with wire, then blown through with an air line....
THE POP AND BLACK CRUD ON THE FLOOR 🤣🤣
PERFECT 👌
£400+ lighter in the wallet 🤦 investigation rather than advice and speculation 🙄

I have a 320d 2013, it’s smoking like FCK! Whiteish smoke, it’s not the head gasket not over heating or any coolant dipping,my turbo has a little smidge of play side to side but not axial, I have no clue what it could really be any help? Thanks mate 👍🏼

My n47n 2011 320d new turbo… the linkage arm has movement it rattles when I move it. Do I need new clips? Mechanic is saying it should move but I don’t think it should move as much as it does 😳

Got a BMW 123D. No fault code, and all things repaired. However, idles OK but smokes at 2500/3000 RPM. Back to idle, OK. Also fume smells. I'm thinking turbo seals? ERG done, Inlet done, oil, filters etc etc

David Broster :
Do you get many turbo failures on cars due to engine breather/ oil separators not being changed, causing crankcase pressure and leaking turbo seals? I get it on plant/ trucks and tractors

Had a fault once on a Q7 3.0tdi Audi said it needed a new turbo as the actuator was producing fault codes turns out it was water damaged ECU 😁
