Default Dead tubro 1994 940

My turbo is making a horrifying sound. It sounds shot. A super loud whizzing sound and rattling and whining. What can be done?

Default RE: Dead tubro 1994 940

I put a used turbo in today and all seems mint, this is just a temp fix till i get a nice new one. Replaced the gasket for the oil return and went over all the lines and hoses to insure a nice tight fit. Boost is mint now and all seems to working out good.

I cant wait to post pics of the wasted turbo. What a nightmare. Job was not so crazy hard. 4+hrs. More stressful and tedious then hard. I have big hands and its hard to fit them in some spots.

To date i replaced:

Radiator
Turbo
Vacuum lines
All hoses
Full tune up

Im still under $2000 car included, so im happy. I should expect at the very lest 120,000 more miles on this car.
