Thanks for the video has helped a lot with removing old turbo and installing new turbo ,not gunna lie it isn’t an easy job but your video has saved me a fair amount of time 👍
what size Allen socket did you use for the oil feed and water feed. I've been trying to find the measurements of these 2 dolts for a while now and would greatly appreciate it if you could let me know.
Great job sir well explained and filmed. I have a smoke issue on my Mk1 audi TT 180 on the left side as you look from the front of the car, I’ve changed the rocker cover gasket no change thinking it may be a damaged or loose charge pipe after the pancake pipe as that’s where the smoke comes from that area!
If it is not the rocker cover gasket and it is still leaking it could be cam seals or half moon seal. Clean and check around those areas for leaks after it is clean :D
Hello mate, thanks a lot for the detailled video and congratulations to get the job done successfully 😁 you can be proud of your work. I am planning to replace my turbo too with a K03s like you since my stock K03 doesn’t held above 0.6 bar after remapping (I’ll check for boost leaks before tho). I will do it on my A3 8L with the same AGU engine. Quick question, does the stock turbo inlet pipe fits into the K03s inlet? I heard that it’s quite thicker, but some people told me that’s okay… Same with the charge pipe ? No modifications needed? Thanks a lot for your reply 🙂
Hey mate! I'm glad you find this information helpful! The stock turbo inlet may not fit without modification, I would suggest getting a silicone hose replacement if you can. Charge pipes are the same. Direct fit.
Hey nice job , I just pulled the engine out , no chance I could try and finaggle around the back of the turbo. I have just put k04 001 on but intake is now to small . Where did you get your intake from?
I got my Intake from a friend who no doubt go it from eBay - look for creation motor sport oversized tips. There's a cheaper option i'll try and find a link
Hi there, thanks for watching. You certainly can go aftermarket actuator and it would help your tuner to dial in the boost but be careful with the spring rate as if it's too stiff it can go into over boost situation.
Hi, i have a question. Is it possible to take the turbo out throw the downside without taking off the exhaust manifold? I dont know if theres room to fit the top water/oil lanes before screwing the 3 bolts to the manifold. Thanks u in advance mate!
After a turbo change yes it'll smoke a little when start up. Too much though could be something else. Let it finish waning up and burning off excess fluids.
@@1mad_bug I only know of one tuner in NSW Australia who can tune the me3.8.3 to run 98 Ron and E85 using knock sensors I believe. They are Quattro motorsport. I've never used them but they claim to be able to do it using 550cc Bosch's injectors paired with a K04-001 turbo
Best video on the Internet let alone you tube for a turbo removal your a absolute legend 🙌 helped me and my mate out endlessly thank you
@@connorwithey6145 so good to hear mate! Glad it's helping others out even still!👍👍
1/4 inch swivel extensions on 12/13 mm for those manifold bolts is the best option. Great work sire
Thanks for the advice man! Got another turbo swap coming so will keep the swivel extension handy👍

Good question mate - I can't remember haha I'll check through the footage

Thanks for the video. I’m removing my turbo this spring. Any reason you didn’t use a aftermarket actuator?

There's literally no room to get to the banjo bolts that's why most take it from the top since the manifold has to come off anyway
@@ajrveedub thanks so much
Is this install the same for 1.8t awp engine? I have a 04 jetta
Same swap yeah might have differnces in emissions stuff around the engine but turbo swap would be similar.
Hey aj, u got a part number for that turbo or know anyone with one? Or how much is a new one ?
It's a k03-052 without silencer or k03-053 with silencer.
very detailed thx for the video
Thanks man!
hi there did u have to install oil catch
I didn't install one for my k03s build. But I have one now for my current k04.
Is smoking from exhaust out rear normal tho
After a turbo change yes it'll smoke a little when start up.
Too much though could be something else.

Is there a diffrence from the stock k03 to k03s ?
Yes about 30-40hp difference
@@ajrveedub do you know if i can run e85? On stage 2 tune ?
