pajero tdi blown turbo advice needed
Posted: Sun Oct 19, 2008 7:57 pm
The intake manifold gasket blew and then oil spewed out everywhere.
Took the inter cooler pipe off and oil ran out of the turbo ,so I am assuming the turbo seal is gone.All pipes are covered in oil.The turbo has very minor play in the shaft but hasn't rubbed the blades on the body.
Turbo is a td04.
Questions:
Should I buy a new turbo ? and any recommendations from were from , or should I rebuild this one? Kit on ebay is about $100 delivered.
Is this the same turbo used in a wrx?
Can I buy a rex turbo as they seem cheaper.
I dont think the motor has been compromised sucking in a litre of oil over the last week
Cheers
Mike
