I am told once seized it's toast. The waste gate and turbo are 1 piece and repair is $1,500. T.D.I.'s are cheap to drive until they have a mechancial problem.

As a protest I WILL NOT take my Jetta to a VW dealer. I go to local garage at half the price.

The best oil for A4 2000, 1.9 TDI, 85 kW, is CASTROL 0W30 SLX Longlife II (TDI Pump Nozzle) VW Norm 506.01 . This oil is issued by Castrol special for TDI - Pumpe Duse (Pump Nozzle) engine as longlife oil (50,000 km service interval, or two years).
Also a normal service oil (15,000 kmservice interval, or one year) is Castrol TXT 5W40, and Castrol EDGE 5W30, for TDI Pump Nozzle engines, VW Norm 505.01.

turbo might of started to **** oil pull off the air hoe to the turbo and see if it is full of oil that will give oyu a place to start looking

check the turbo hoses, they are renound for dry cracking, very hard to see at first glance

Why do you think it's your turbo? Are you losing power?

i think that you have to check the turbo for leak oil or problem after rebuild
