very true. unfortunately first didnt even fit oil lines, and waters didnt line up. they ended up taking his old turbo hybriding that. even though he did pay for a brand new item.
first hybrid turbo turned the seals in the rollers, fitted by him, and drove for around 600miles off boost.
second replcement item went wrong seals again fitted by r-tech who were mapping.
third one seized i think. fitted by r-tech again
cr turbos sent it away to be checked over by 3rd party, blame it on low oil pressure from his engine and wouldnt warrant a rebuild.
a standard turbo was fitted to keep the car mobile, sent to vw for an oil pressure check- came back sweet as a nut and he has covered probably 6-7k since then. its a daily driver so is used everyday.
as i said its not personal expierence but a friend of work, but at the same time i wouldnt be happy with the service he has received.
the car is a golf 1.8t btw.

The thing that really pissed me off though was that I told them I had a brand new garret -31 actuator so they did not need to supply me an actuator, when It arrived it had a new -31 fitted. When I phoned them up and said have I payed for this actuator the person was like "eerrrr no"
more than likely a pre built unit mate, easier just to send you a unit with it fitted, then for someone to spend time removing it.
