Great video… I wonder if there is enough space while keeping the turbo oil feeds connected to remove the housing bolts and spray cleaner into the turbo?
It could possibly be done but a fellow would need to be confident and competent. If the core wasn’t fitted correctly in place it could be a waste of time, but worth trying 😬😬😬
Hi pal, wanted to ask im having a vanes issue. When moving the actuator up and down it seems to stick after a few times of moving it. Seems as if it is the vanes, if I was paying a mechanic near me to do this what do you think a a rough and good charge would be?
What kind of car is it Roshaan ? Unfortunately if it is an Octavia or vag group 1.6 diesel your technician would more than likely want to remove the whole turbo to either disassemble or send it off to be reconditioned. This could very expensive. Anything up to €2000 They way I tackled it took around 4 hrs in total & would cost around €200. Hopefully this is enough information but if not feel to ask again 👍👍
@@kennedysgarage3281 hi it is the leon 2.0 tdi 2013, layout of the engine is basically the same as you have shown in the video. I am trying to show someone this video and try follow your steps to see if they can do it. 200 is a great price, so in theory that part you cleaned out is the only bit that needs doing? Not the other section that is left on car?
@@roshaanqaisar yes only the turbo core & veins need to be removed. It is the veins that become seized with carbon & need cleaning. Good luck with it 👍😉
@@kennedysgarage3281 hi, am I able to send you a video of my vane movement movement. Just as I'm having mix answers on it some are saying my movement is normal and others differently. Any way I can contact you to send this video over? Thanks
@@roshaanqaisar yes absolutely, I’m on WhatsApp just Google Kennedys garage. Take off the the actuator and the veins should be as free as a bird. Talk soon 👍
The 1st question is do you have a high & low pressure egr valves ?? The normal egr valve is under the turbo & if your car has a low pressure egr it is on the right hand side of the intercooler just above where the engine & gearbox meet . This might help 👍
We are in Waterford, but no I do not do DPF deletes. Unfortunately we only fix broken cars & don’t delete because we can’t fix them 😂😂😂 I do advise against deleting too due to new regulations coming which could cost 3k to undo the damage by someone drilling you DPF ?? What is actually wrong with your car ??
@@kennedysgarage3281 everything wrong lol. Egr went about 4 years but had it deleted, the turbo leaking oil I belive as I have intermittent blue smoke and I think this is directly impacting the dpf performance. Current only error is boost control position sensor fault. One day itll be fine and have plenty of boost and I can go for long drive which keeps the dpf at bay, but in general is just a night mare. Id love to just get new turbo egr and dpf clean but all that with Labour just can't afford sadly
Unfortunately on this one No , I’m still hunting an overboost issue. Getting these fault codes when it boosts to 37psi. I have loads of recordings of it to be edited when I figure out what is going on 🤔 But the veins were very tight & they are definitely ruled out at this point. I’ll post it once I find the answer 👍
@@kennedysgarage3281 ok... maybe false readings from boost pressure sensor or restricted air flow though intercooler or sticking solenoid on turbo boost actuator. Just a thought
@@the_retired_mechanic the intake blockage is in my mind at this point. I have verified pressure sensor & swopped out solenoid. Scoped all wires & verified vacuum. I have sent in a borascope but think I will have to remove it to be sure ☹️ Good info though 👍
