    There are many other factors that could cause the turbo to fail and if you were to speculate that it's a country related failure, you could also through our fuel in the equation, since there are many turbos that had failed on not tuned cars.

    Got my car back today. VW (God bless em) covered all the cost. Took just over a week to order part from Europe and fit it. So, 5 weeks borrowing, cabbing and the occasional train and I'm back rolling. First chance to feel the results of the upgrade too. Impressive.
