New Volkswagen Bora Turbo – Ref. 751851-5004S

Signs of a worn turbo on your Volkswagen Bora 1.9 TDI 115

On the Bora fitted with the 1.9 TDI 115 engine, a turbocharger nearing the end of its life often makes itself known through a noticeable loss of power under load, an unusual whistling noise on acceleration, or an engine warning light on the dashboard. Blue exhaust smoke — a tell-tale sign of abnormal oil consumption — or black smoke caused by insufficient air pressure may also appear. These symptoms are a recurring issue on the AUY and AJM engines fitted to this model, whose variable-geometry turbo is well known for becoming clogged over time and losing responsiveness.

A new turbo compatible with reference 751851-5004S for the Bora

To restore your Volkswagen Bora to its original performance, this new turbo is compatible with reference 751851-5004S, dedicated to the 1.9 TDI 115 with AUY or AJM engines. Before placing an order, we recommend checking the reference printed on your old turbo or on the vehicle's identification plate, as certain power variants may use different turbos despite sharing the same engine capacity.

Exchange basis and warranty for your Bora

This new turbo is sold on an exchange basis: in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, return of your old turbo is required, but it is only collected after the new part has been delivered and fitted, so your Bora is never left off the road unnecessarily. The part comes with a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments.

Advice before and after fitting on your Bora TDI 115

Before installing the turbo, carefully check the oil circuit, the lubrication pipes and the air intake: insufficient lubrication, poor-quality oil or a blocked air filter are among the most common causes of premature failure on these 1.9 TDI engines. Also check the condition of the intercooler, as a leak can cause rapid failure of the new unit. When starting up for the first time, prime the turbo with oil before the initial start, then drive gently for the first few kilometres to protect the new part.
