Turbo seal replacement service !
Free collection of our damaged unit ,we will then give you a call to let you know its arrived
your turbo is then stripped and then all internal seals and bearings replaced,then posted back to you free of charge
If your unit has more damage than just the seals then will give you a call to discuss the options
When new parts other than seals are introduced to the turbo it will then be out of balance ,so its then balanced out of house to insure the performance and lifespan of the turbo
all parts used are genuine non import !!!

what turbos do u do? all turbos or just petrol turbos?
-
got a website?
-
we do all turbos at the moment we are mainly doing ko3/ko4/garrett t3
we are not a business as such, low overheads means we can provide this service at a cheaper price , but all the turbos when they are assembled they are sent to a registered turbo builder for balancing so the work is warranted from us and them
we are a mixture people who include engineers mechanics and painters who thought we would offer a service to benefit us and you by offering this service
many thanks from all us here

we are not a business more like a hobby who can offer a service if needed
-
Same as a most traders on here. You get business through the forum you help out the forum.
-
are you replacing the bearings as well for that price? A seal replacement is not much use without new bearings as well, as more often than not the thrusts are failling on these.
Are you balancing them also? if it's come apart then it really needs balancing again on a VSR.
Littco rebuild my hybrid with new seals, a special uprated bearing set, and a re-balance for a similar price....
-
yes all seals and bearings replaced and the units are balanced when new parts are introduced thanks
-
What happens if you balls it up? Got insurance to cover it?
-
in a way if it needs a rebuild its already [ballsed up] we take full responsibility for our work and am myself running a k03s rebuilt about 30,000 ago still going strong

yes all seals and bearings replaced and the units are balanced when new parts are introduced thanks
That's cool man, wasn't trying to put you down at all, just wanting to make sure it's clear that you're offering a complete service, not just a 'throw in some seals and send it out' affair
-
no probs thanks for your comments mate i would do the same :smiley:
-
How quickly can you get the turbo returned?
and
what are the symptons of a failed turbo seal?
-
the process takes 3 days 1 to pick up 1 to repair and post back, you will receive back on the third day
symptoms of a blown turbo seal =heavy blue smoke from exhaust. where the oil is passing the seal into the exhaust chamber and being burnt causing blue smoke
reduced performance is also another symptom
loud whirling noises at low revs usually means bearing damage or compressor /turbine wheel
thanks
