The new turbo for your Audi A3 1.9 TDI 130: the right choice for your driving profile
The first-generation Audi A3 (8L) fitted with the 1.9 TDI 130 engine has long been a popular choice for mixed use – town driving, open roads and long motorway runs alike. This kind of usage, often characterised by a combination of short cold-start journeys and more sustained motorway stints, subjects the turbocharger to repeated thermal and mechanical stress. Over time, these cycles weaken the bearings and internal seals, leading to a loss of power, blue smoke from the exhaust, or an unusual whistling noise from the engine bay.
To meet this need, this new turbo is compatible with reference 720855-5007S, intended for Audi A3 vehicles fitted with the 1.9 TDI 130 engine, engine code ASZ, Diesel, engine capacity 1896 cm³. Before placing any order, it is strongly recommended that you check the reference marked on the old turbo and on the engine plate, to confirm exact compatibility with your vehicle.

Fitting advice and common causes of failure on the ASZ engine
On the 1.9 TDI 130 ASZ engine, the leading cause of turbo failure is inadequate lubrication – typically due to poor-quality oil, missed oil changes, or a clogged oil filter. A blocked air filter or a cracked intercooler can also disrupt turbocharger operation and accelerate wear. Before fitting, check the oil circuit, the condition of the hoses and the cleanliness of the air intake, to prevent any contamination of the new turbo. When starting the engine for the first time, priming with oil is essential to ensure immediate bearing lubrication and extend the service life of the new part.
