harvey_smith Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 TD05 16 G is a "normal" Scooby turbo. It is pretty rugged and trated properly will last a long time. ie Do not rag it from cold and do not switch the engine off immediately after coming off booost. Service kits are available and it is not a big job to take it apart to check and fit a service kit. From memory I think the kits are about £50. If you know the history of the turbo and it is good then I would fit it. If the history is unknown, give it to a specialist to check over for you.
