Hello, this video saved me! Every other video is telling you to take all the exauhst off and turbo out, doing it without a lift is PITA. I wasn't able to reach the VNT arm nut, without taking off the leaking valve cover. But by doing that it gave me a lot of space to work and to brake the turbo in half while in the car. Overall I'm very setisfied with my ebay cartridge. Everything with gaskets and fluids and filters came up to $350 and took me 17hrs to do. Better then $3400 that dealer quoted me. Thank you very much sir!
Hi buddy this is first time I'm writing comment on UA-cam, this your video help me allot, thanks for taking your time and sharing the your experience..
Doesnt show removing the 6mm bolts holding the aluminium housing on to the cast exhaust side does it. See them all except the one under the wastegate actuator.............
Cores come balanced, even cheap China ones, there is usually grinding or part drill holes on the inlet impeller. Trickiest part is making sure VNT actuator on the new core lines up with the VNT ring in the exhaust side.
Sadly the Turbos that VW fits are proving as Junk Quality.. GO! vw. It is the 'in - out' play of the turbo shaft that matters ! Side to side (unless seriously excessive) is a non issue as Oil pressure is needed to enable the correct clearances. Not much use in scribing the CHRA for Clocking purposes.... when it is going to be replaced ? to hammer out the CHRA while the Compressor section is still Bolted ON?? Genius at work .

Thanks for sharing this mate. How many miles can we excpect with a rebuilt turbo with a new CHRA?
Hi, if CHRA is good brand or even OE brand than you can expect it to last as original turbo.

Hello mate is giving you any problem with balancing?
Cores come balanced, even cheap China ones, there is usually grinding or part drill holes on the inlet impeller. Trickiest part is making sure VNT actuator on the new core lines up with the VNT ring in the exhaust side.
I can’t not get the turbo core out for my td04 😭
Heat. Alloy and steel expand at different rates, get it up to a few hundred degrees and belt it.
Lol. You need to callibrate your new core. 😂😂😂 in couple if months or 1 year of use your turbo will blow.
no you don’t. you don’t have a clue
New cores should go through 3 rigorous balancing test before being sold to the customer…unless you went to a cheap ass eBay vendor
