i suppose its worth a try... well it certainly is - and i wish you the best of luck.
Thats not very good news about your car,
Wonder how other many Tdi's have had problems with turbo's and engine problems.
I had the turbo, engine, full exhaust on my 07 tdi replaced under warranty, and also the thermostat and watercooler also replaced the following week .
Not sure exactly what the total repair bill would have been for my car including the parts, labour, 4 trips on the back of the towtruck.
No problems as yet with car, everything seems to be running fine, and i seem to be getting a bit better fuel consumption even though the engine is still quite new

best of luck with it all mate, as a fellow TDI owner this scares me somewhat.

Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.
