A new turbo built for real-world use in your Audi A4
The Audi A4 fitted with a 1.9 TDI 130 or 2.0 TDI 140 engine is frequently used on long A-road and motorway runs, but also in mixed urban driving with frequent stops and repeated heat cycles. This constant variation in engine speed places considerable strain on the turbocharger, particularly during acceleration after prolonged idling or when the engine is switched off immediately after hard driving. Over time, these thermal and mechanical stresses can accelerate wear on the bearings and the variable-geometry regulation system specific to these engines.
Compatibility with the A4's 1.9 TDI and 2.0 TDI engines
This new turbo is compatible with reference 038145702N, intended for Audi A4 models fitted with the 1.9 TDI 130 (engine codes AVF, AWX) and 2.0 TDI 140 (engine codes BLB, BPW) engines. Before placing an order, please check the exact reference printed on your old turbo or on your vehicle registration document, as several turbo variants may exist depending on the version and build date of the vehicle.
Straightforward sale – no old unit to return
This turbo is sold as a straightforward sale: you receive the new turbo directly, with no obligation to return your old turbocharger, whether it is still fitted or has already been removed. There is no deposit and no collection to arrange – a single delivery is all it takes. The new turbo comes with a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional.
Common causes of failure on these engines
On the A4's 1.9 TDI and 2.0 TDI units, premature turbo failure most commonly results from insufficient lubrication caused by missed oil changes or the use of an unsuitable oil grade, a clogged air filter disrupting the intake, or an intercooler leak altering boost pressure. Driving habits that involve sharp bursts of high revs followed by immediately switching off the engine also accelerate bearing wear.
- Check the condition and cleanliness of the oil circuit before fitting
- Inspect the intake hoses and check the intercooler for leaks
- Examine the air intake to rule out any foreign objects
- Prime the turbo with oil before the first start-up
These straightforward checks will ensure a reliable first start and help extend the service life of the new turbo fitted to your Audi A4.
Flexible payment
Payment for this new turbo can be spread over several instalments – pay in up to 10 instalments to make your purchase easier.
