What was the price and to repair what?

I need to send mine off asap as I have a blade missing from the rear turbine No play at front etc

I was going to send to CR turbos...

I dont know what happened to it? Ive had various suggestions from debris getting sucked through it to the bearings failing!!

I was quoted between £300-500 PLUS VAT to repair :-(

what turbo is it?
there are loads of smaller companies about, one i used was Turbo Force and no issues with them really (couple of rebuilds done before collapsing under heat oil feed was discovered).

if it's something a little special then the price would reflect that, but a standard T3 repair was about £300.

Looks like bearings to mate.

Try Danny at RA designs.. He rebuilt my T4 and was VERY reasonable

i found it to be a false economy trying to repair turbos. i would only buy new now but that maybe down to bad luck in having 3 donkeys doing 3 shit jobs.

Ive never had any issues with the turbos Vince @ CR Turbos has rebuilt - although the price kept going up and up each time as i did more and more damage

I have had NOTHING but aggro and dissapointment with TurboDynamics and would never ever use them again.

So anyone but them if my experiences are anything to go by!
