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 and country driving as well as long motorway runs. This kind of usage, often characterised by a mix of short cold-start journeys and sustained motorway stints, places repeated thermal and mechanical stress on the turbocharger. 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, designed for Audi A3 vehicles fitted with the 1.9 TDI 130 engine, engine code ASZ, diesel, engine capacity 1896 cm³. Before placing an order, it is strongly recommended that you check the reference number on your old turbo and on the engine plate to confirm exact compatibility with your vehicle.
Warranty and delivery for this Audi A3 turbo
This new turbo is sold as a straightforward purchase: there is nothing to return – no collection or return of the old turbo is required. You simply receive the new part in a single delivery. The part carries a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments to make your purchase easier.
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 the turbo with oil is essential to ensure immediate bearing lubrication and extend the service life of the new part.
