AUDI A4 - BAD TURBO - REPLACEMENT COSTS????

Has anyone had to replace their turbos on a 1998 Audi A4? I am trying to get an idea of cost on this. Thanks!

    Here is the question: 


    Trying to get an estimate on cost from someone who has had to replace their turbo (one turbo) on a 1998 Audi A4. It would be most helpful to understand labor and part costs. Just want to see how my estimate compares. 


    Thanks!

    My turbo is running when my car is first turned on and the engine is idling, which I know its not supposed to do. I don't think it'd be 6K to fix though cause you could swap a whole engine for that. I'm gonna say 1500 thats how much I'll be saving to fix mine

My guess on two turbos would be $6000.  Is there a local place that rebuilds turbos?

Iam planning to buy Audi A4..I would like to know the the maintainance and insurance and other costs related ..

I have an Audi A4 and love the car.Super comfortable ride and one of the safer cars on the market. The downside is the cost of maintenance. Parts and labor are rather pricey. My advice would be to find a trusted mechanic and get some estimates for routine jobs such as brake repair and tune ups. Some jobs are expensive such as timing belt replacement, etc. Also the motor in your potential car is important as far as cost goes. Turbocharged engines require synthetic oil changed at lower intervals than a non turbo motor. Also they all require super gas. Insurance costs are dependent on your company and driving record. The car itself should not command any higher premium than comparable cars such as the VW Passat. You can get a quote from your company.

I have a audi a4 1.8 turbo the dash panel is flashing oil

it may be bad, i would replace that and see if the light comes back on,its easy to change ive done a few,just drain the oil then remove bolts and remove, install new gasket with new one,theres a way to bypass to test, i belive if you just unplug it or jump the wires,you can try both ways first before replacing it,if it has more than two wires going to it then dont try jumping it, just replace it, good luck.

BAD TURBO - REPLACEMENT COST?

I've seen quotes in the $1500-2500 range, depending on what needs to be done and what the parts prices are. Regardless, when you do it you may want to upgrade or at least replace the diverter valve (DV) as well - they have a plastic diaphragm inside and are prone to failure. You can buy a new OEM one, an aftermarket one such as a Forge DV, or upgrade to an OEM DV from an Audi TT 225.

If you're in the northeast, I can help you out with this - I can change it out in my garage and I happen to have a pair of OEM K03 turbos from a 2001 S4 sitting on my shelf:) If you are in this area, leave me an email address where I can contact you and I can arrange to help you out (at a significantly lower cost than those shop prices quoted above).

Turbo= not working

Most likely the turbo is gone. What ever part of the turbo went, just replace the entire turbo. Not serviceable 99% of the time. The engine will not like being driven for any extended period of time with a bad turbo.
