Not sure you've found the right part?
Why does the turbo on the Audi A6 1.9 TDI so often fail prematurely?
On the 1.9 TDI engines fitted to the Audi A6, the turbocharger is put under particular strain by the oil pressure required to lubricate its central shaft. A delayed oil change, low-quality oil or a clogged oil filter is all it takes to accelerate bearing wear and cause abnormal play, often accompanied by blue smoke from the exhaust. A blocked air filter or a cracked intercooler will also disrupt intake pressure and weaken the turbine, while revving the engine hard without allowing it to cool down first causes premature wear of the seals.
Compatibility of the turbo with the Audi A6 1.9 TDI
This new turbo is compatible with reference 454231-5008S and fits the Audi A6 equipped with the 1.9 TDI 110 hp and 1.9 TDI 115 hp engines, corresponding to engine codes AFN, AVB, AJM and ATJ. Before placing your order, we recommend checking the reference printed on your old turbo, as several closely related variants may have been fitted to this engine range depending on the year of manufacture and the market.
Warranty and delivery for this Audi A6 turbo
This new turbo is sold as a straightforward purchase: it is a single delivery and no old unit needs to be returned. The part is covered by a 12-month warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments.
Advice before and after fitting on your Audi A6 1.9 TDI
Before fitting the new turbo, check the condition of the oil circuit, the cleanliness of the intake hoses and that there are no air leaks, so as to avoid any premature contamination of the new component. Always prime the oil feed hose before the first start-up, then run the engine at idle for a few minutes to ensure even lubrication of the turbine shaft from the outset.
