Frequent short urban journeys — common with this compact model — lead to oil circuit contamination and carbon build-up around the variable geometry, which can jam the vanes and cause overboosting or a loss of power. A clogged air filter or a cracked intercooler allowing impurities through will also accelerate turbine wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility of the new turbo with the Audi A3 1.6 TDI\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new turbo is compatible with reference 04L253016H and its equivalents, and fits Audi A3 models equipped with the 1.6 TDI engine producing 90, 105, 110 or 115 hp, associated with engine codes CLHA, CLHB, CRKB, CXXB or DBKA. Before ordering, we recommend checking the reference printed on your old turbo or on the engine plate of your Audi A3, as successive versions of this model may use turbos that are similar but not strictly identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA straightforward purchase — nothing to return\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new turbo for the Audi A3 1.6 TDI is sold as a straightforward purchase: you receive a single delivery and have no used part to send back — no return, no collection, no deposit required.
