Wow, and somehow we are supposed to believe that you have intelligence??? 268K miles and still going on my TDI. No issues whatsoever other than all those damn Mazda's slowing me down on the mountain passes... pathetic post, you should be ashamed.

If VW uses such crap turbos on the TDI's, I'm inclined to remove it and replace it with a better known reliable turbo. No reason to replace failing components with another one that'll fail in the same time period. Upgrade to something more reliable instead of wasting money on maintenance.
