    2.5TDi V6 quattro Sport 180hp Turbochip

    maybe so, but mine struggled to give out 210bhp and 400nm and ended up putting it back to spec. the inj pump went to Bosch for an overhaul and got the all clear. The turbo and pipework all got tested and held boost perfectly. Make of that what you will! If you have anything, i would be...

    Oh What A Month - Head, Turbo Help?

    the oil pump was actually OK it was the hoses feeding which were blocked, like arteries there was a VERY thin groove almost where some oil was flowing through, just not enough as the metal to metal bearing just ate itself. Never service the A6 myself so its down to a point in its previous...

    Oh What A Month - Head, Turbo Help?

    ohhh .. my turbo went on the A6 1.8T and it wasnt he oil pump, the bearings ceased but as the feeder hoses were utterly clogged, very visible the damage was done, the reason for this has been firmly pointed at the long life servicing oil and changing to another oil wihtout flushing..
