  • Todays video is a bit of a rushed one, we have had to split this video into two parts due to things not quite going to plan! Stay tuned for the strip down of the turbo core on my Audi A3 tdi!

    Well done getting that lot off. The ‘hot’ exhaust side = Turbine wheel & housing. The ‘cold’ intake side = Compressor wheel & housing. The vane part is called the Nozzle and in this example it’s variable geometry; the angle and therefore the width between the vanes has a direct effect on turbine speed. The variable geometry gives improved consistency of power, particularly at lower rpm and help with emissions. The new part you’re fitting is what we’d call the Turbo Cartridge. The compressor wheel blades (bent and chipped) have been contacting (dragging) on the housing because of the excessive shaft play; you can see the contact marks on the inner surface of the compressor housing. Just check these scores aren’t too deep as it may affect its efficiency.

    I've never pulled a turbo apart... Hadn't even thought about replacing cores, if i have trouble with a turbo i generally just replace the whole unit! Looking forwards to the second part👍

    • @SavingSalvage
      @SavingSalvage  Před 4 lety +12

      When you buy refurbished turbos that’s generally people that just replace the core and clean it. New turbos can be £3/400. A core can be as cheap as £70. Or in this case it was £100.

      Pulled apart turbo last month from my 1.9 tdi because of shaft play . No problems with replacing core. Its way cheaper than visit workshops speciliazed in turbo rebuilds. Just order the correct turbo cartridge , couple hours of work and done. :) Of course, not everyone can do that, hands need to grow from correct place :D btw, core was just 70 euros, factory balanced and still works perfect , even with hard pulls on highway with remap. :) Cheers.

    You got the full and no boost positons for the vanes the wrong way round. Full boost is when the vanes are nearly tip to tail, as this give the fastest air flow speed to the turbine. Very important to get the maximum boost point set right as if they do go tip to tail it will strangle the engine and can cause big damage. This is set with the stop screw and really needs to be done on a proper flow bench. This is why so many cars with 'reconditioned' turbos have virtually no boost until over 2000rpm, kind of negating the whole point of a VNT turbo.

  • @user-cx9ul5lk5g
    @user-cx9ul5lk5g Před rokem

    When the vanes are closed you get full boost, when they are open you get none. - When the vanes are closed it causes the exhaust gas's velocity to increase and increases speed on the turbine wheel, you said it backwars! 👍👍

      A mechanic friend of mine replaced a turbo core for a friend's BMW, drove fine for about 2 hours then a really horrible turbo noise and something must of hit the new blades and chewed the new core up.. dunno if it could of been a lump of carbon or a bit of old turbo blade.. lol 😓
      My mk5 golf GT has a whistle noise, I think it is the turbo but could also have a leak too but cannot find it, even after a boost leak test. I do t have access to a smoke boost leak tester.

    I think that is gone beyond a new core, the play was so bad it was rubbing on the compressor housing and exhaust housing. I think a whole new turbo is really in order for this as those housings shouldtn really be reused.

    The reason the turbine blades were as you put it " eaten away " is because a foreign object has gone through them breaking the blades Now if the car has an intercooler the debris will be in the cooler if not then the bits will be in the engine somewhere !!!

  • @stevensmith7021
    @stevensmith7021 Před 4 lety

    Great videos mate. Think you might have got the explanation of the waste gate confused... I thought the vanes open to let the exhaust gases bypass the turbine thereby reducing the drive to the compressor and producing less boost?

    • @B18CDR
      @B18CDR Před 4 lety

      Yeah, I thought the same..
      closed = full boost
      open = less boost

    • @SavingSalvage
      @SavingSalvage  Před 4 lety +1

      The actuator controls the amount of airflow into the turbo. It’s mainly so that you can get torque lower down. So when the vanes are only slightly open it creates more pressure which spools up the turbo quicker at low rpms. Then as the revs increase the vanes will open up. That’s how I’ve understood it anyway haha

    Your making that turbo core replacement difficult for yourself a LOT. I had the same car but Quattro and replaced the turbo core. Easy. No need to take the manifold off or the exhaust. Just remove the 5 or is it 6 bolts holding the two turbo halves together ,remove inlet pipe and voila the core comes out.

    • @SavingSalvage
      @SavingSalvage  Před 4 lety +6

      It was more for the video so people can see better what I’m trying to do. Also some of those core bolts will be very hard to get to in situ and with big hands i could end up spending an hour getting one bolt out. Done it that way in the past and it can be quicker. But equally can be harder and more stressful. 👍🏽
