new turbo is screaming its head of after doing 250 miles,
i am never using turbo force ever again, im going to order a
turbo technics one i think, i cant be doing with this.

took main hose of and comp wheel has right amount of play in it but there
is oil all over boot lid and it must be from turbo cause its only started doing it since it was put on

so im thinking may be an internal bearing is fooked

 

I feel for you mate as i have been there with crap turbo companys, all turbo companys have shit warrenty's so your doing the right thing by going to good company now to build you one as you narrow down the chances i suppose.

chin up mate.

 

Fuck sake!!! If I was you I'd be on the phone to Universal Turbos or Turbo Dynamics and get one off them!!!

How many is it now? 4? New will be the 5th?

 

i got mine from http://www.essexturbochargers.co.uk/index.shtml never had a problem

 

not again

youve had nothing but trouble with that turbo

 

try universal mate, execellent service with me

 

daz, its my 5th

took hose of and comp wheel fine so must be something to do with internals

so universal turbos are good are they?

 

Turbo Technics are THE daddy of turbo builders!! had a few on variuos different car's and NEVER had a problem with any of them!!! they might be a bit dearer but are the best!

 

got 3 phone numbers, technics, universal and turbo dynamics, will get
on the dog and bone tomorrow

 

out of all the turbos ive had turbo technics have never let me down
took my fiesta to universal turbos and they said my turbo was breathing heavy-that was 5yrs ago and it is still going strong....not much work on=they wanted to sell me a turbo??

 

was thinking of Turbo technics any way due to there good reputation etc

 

on my current s1 i went through 3 turbos within a month
now im using turbo technics and not a single problem

 

cool
Technics it is then

 

Me and my mate Ian have just been talking about turbos and turbo reconditioners. Apparently the tolerances are in microns which is why some of these smaller companies can't get them spot on....

 

fuxake, gutted for you mate, get a technics one

 

yeah, i read something similar on technics website,
saying how they are repeatabley tested to make sure there spot on

 

I PRESUME ON START UP AND SHUT DOWN YOU ARE IDLING THE MOTOR 2 MINS TO GET TO OPERATING TEMP

 

yes, more like 5 mins on start up and 1 1/2 mins after a drive

 

only an advised, cant always do it in the real world

turbo Techincs have the reputation they deserve - a good one

Why bother going £50 cheaper when u don't even know what they like - use sense this time and do it properly

If you can't afford it - wait until you can

 

that's not nice lol
people make mistakes and learn from them

FFS we own's fords!!! we'll learn one day

 

jesus christ another one id be round there taking a to the guys kneecaps useless bastards they giving you any sort of refund or compensation or is it just we will rebuild it again for free ?

 

i am going to go in one day when i get chance and get my 170 quid back which ive already been told i can have back, i have decided not to use them again,
am going to buy a new turbo from somewhere else, so im out of pocket but at
least it should stop me from getting stressed,

 

idiot
ateam

 

He`s back

 

turbo received today

 

i think mine was from there n ran it in with the engine , then i give it a bit n sounds like a hairdrier... not good when u shell out 300 quid n turns out to be shite ??? not balanced properly

 

yep, not good

 

Andy, when I need my turbo changing, I'll give you a ring, you now being a specialist and all that!

 

oh yeah, i can prob do it eyes shut now LOL

 

Back again ha ha

 

Well,you were for a short time...

Goodbye.

 

brilliant

LMFAO
