Your lucky dude, I have know many 2.0TDi blow the turbo straight after a remap from many tuners (who wont admit for it lol) that extra 150-200mb boost is enough to finish a weak turbo off straight away.  In the last 24month I have had 2x 140PDs chuck there muck on the dyno on the first mapped power run.   New turbo OEM Garret from Turbo Dynamics £400 and cars are then fine for another 100k+   

The is no way of knowing if a turbo is going to fail and with a 140PD its a waiting game,  Like I said before and echo Craig its the risk with tuning.

Is that 400 for a brand new one or a recon turbo? Sounds cheap i had my bearings changed by darside i drove it home and the siren noise is back they did guarantee that it would not do it prior to fittin and now they say the siren noise is normal because you have had a decat!

In their opionion theres is nothing wrong with the car before and after except am 500 quid out of pocket. They did say hammer it and of it blows up we will replace it!

Brand new units Garett units around £400
police siren noise is normally realted to bearing failing,  a similar noise could be from air flow via the decat at low rpms or a hole in the tip pipe
