Failed Turbos
« on: 12 May 2015, 23:18 »
I've just been reading about failed turbos on the Mk7 GTI.

Here is a list of turbo part numbers :

06K 145 702 K - Revision 1
06K 145 702 Q - Revision 2
06K 145 702 R - Revision 3
06K 145 702 T - Revision 4 - mine (Nov 2014)
06K 145 722 G - Revision 5

Has anyone had a failure on here?

If your worrying about turbo failures then I suggest you don't purchase a tuning box or remap like in your other thread.
TCR, Pure Grey, DCC, Dynaudio and Climate Screen.

If they are failing in standard trim then at least have some fun and help it along its way  :evil: :laugh:

Well mine's a K but I'm having a Revo stage 2 next month. I checked mine for spindle movement and there isn't any and it's done 25000 miles.
Old, but a serial modder!
