Help!?

I have a turbo with some issues, the turbo shaft has absolutely no lateral play, but it does move back and forth, does that mean the bearings are fooked?

if you can pull the shaft out towards you then yes it needs a rebuild, lots of movement?

Well I measured it as 0.6mm, the shaft spins freely and like I said no side to side, but I dont want to put it up on ebay and end up with it back with negative feedback, if it needs a rebuild I can put that in the add.

that is a fair ammount tbh but just list it on ebay as what it is mate.
im currently rebuilding a gt1749v of a laguna for my cousin, new shaft and wheel all seals and bearings/thrust.
its worn the comp cover rear plate aswell where the seal runns still only £120 though all in for the parts.

Roller bearing turbos normally have a small amount of thrust movement, normal turbos shouldn't have any

Ok cool, thanks for the replies guys.

Its a T04E T3/T4 so I believe it is a thrust bearing, so I guess it is a definite rebuild.
