Title: Turbo golf mk7R
Post by: jonesltd on 18 July 2024, 13:33

Hi Guys

My beloved golf died on sunday!

Turbo sounds like a siren going off and its just had a gear box, oil change, coolant change, timing chains done the lot  :cry:

No amount of crying would help but its cut me deep  :grin:

I am in search of the cheapest way to get it back on the road and sell it.

Anyone advise as this is new to me ie turbo going

Just grab another IS38 turbo, usually loads available in the usual places... Check oil for metal contam. Loads of others know more that I though...

Got one from a mate of mine and omg it functions loads better, the power is smooth throughout the gears and doesn’t forget part way thru putting foot down where the power goes it’s ace!
