A new turbo designed for the Audi A8 3.0 TDI quattro

The D3-generation Audi A8 is a prestige saloon frequently used for long motorway journeys, business travel and sustained high-speed driving over considerable distances. This usage profile places significant thermal and mechanical stress on the turbocharger, particularly during prolonged periods of high revs or the dynamic driving that is characteristic of this quattro model. A worn or poorly lubricated turbo will typically manifest as a loss of power, unusual exhaust smoke, or a whistling noise under acceleration.

Compatibility with Audi A8 engines

This turbo is compatible with the Audi A8 D3 (4E2, 4E8) 3.0 TDI quattro, engine ASB, with an engine capacity of 2967 cm³. It also fits the BNG engine of the same capacity fitted to this model. Before placing an order, we recommend checking the exact reference marked on the old turbo as well as the engine code shown on the V5C or on the engine block, to ensure perfect compatibility with your vehicle.

Warranty and delivery for the Audi A8 turbo

This new turbo is sold individually as a straightforward sale: no return or collection of the old turbo is required, and no unit needs to be sent back. The part is delivered directly to you in a single shipment. It comes with a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over several instalments, in up to 10 instalments.

Fitting advice to maximise turbo longevity

On a V6 TDI as heavily used as the one in the A8, several factors can lead to premature turbo failure: insufficient lubrication, oil of inadequate quality or with overdue oil changes, a clogged air filter, or a cracked intercooler allowing contaminants through. Before fitting, it is essential to check the oil circuit, the condition of the hoses and the cleanliness of the air intake to prevent any contamination of the new turbo. On first start-up, priming with oil is recommended to ensure immediate lubrication of the bearings and extend the service life of the part.
