    Skoda Octavia Turbo Failure

    Hey Guys,

    My much beloved Skoda Octavia had her turbo fail and I had to get towed. Does anyone know where you can source an aftermarket part in Aus? IF anyone has had a similar issue, what is the cost of replacing the part?

    I've had the car since new (210k) and this is the first major issue. I really don't want to part with her yet.

    Dave

    I'd look at a reputable Volkswagen shop.
    I go to CamdenGTI, they did my TDI big turbo build and the owner (Matt) is a diesel nut.
    2012 Octavia vRS TDI. Darkside big turbo, 3bar tune, other stuff. 200kW/650Nm.
    1990 Mk1 Cabrio. 1.9 IDI w/ 18PSI.
    1985 Mazda T3500 adventuremobile. 1973 Superbug. 1972 Volvo 144 in poo-brown.
    Not including hers...
