There's your answer right there, lol.
BUT! There is no harm in removing, stripping, cleaning and rebuilding it. They can soot up inside and stop the Variable vanes from moving fully.

Or you could buy my 2.5 tdi Allroad turbo that gives a little edge over the standard 2.5 tdi turbo, and along with a remap you will be smiling all day long

What ia the difference with an Allroad turbo

 

[S4_dan]

According to Adamss24, the trim is different so it spools a little quicker and should hold the boost for longer. The reason the trim is different is because an Allroad is heavier.

Not entirely true but the allroad turbo has different stop screw/actuator settings and main difference is in the map. The early gt2050v had a different vnt mechanism held with 5 bolts instead of 3 on later ones and the turbine shaft was necked so more prone to break...

I must have misinterpreted one of your messages then couple years ago when I first got my B6 then.
