What a new turbo does for your Audi A6
On an Audi A6 fitted with the 3.0 TDI quattro, a turbo in perfect working order makes itself felt immediately: throttle response is crisp from low revs, torque builds smoothly, and the saloon regains the effortless flexibility that defines this V6 diesel engine. Conversely, a worn turbo shows itself through a gradual loss of power, an unusual whistling noise, an engine warning light, or exhaust smoke. Fitting a new turbo restores factory performance without any compromise on drivetrain reliability.
Compatibility of the new turbo for the Audi A6
This new turbo is compatible with reference 839078-5001S, designed for the 3.0 TDI quattro engine (engine code CRTD) fitted to the Audi A6. Before placing an order, it is essential to check the exact reference stamped on the identification plate of your old turbo, as several variants of this engine exist depending on the power output and vehicle specification.

Exchange basis and warranty
This turbo is sold on an exchange basis: return of your old turbo is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions. It is only collected after the new turbo has been delivered and fitted, so your Audi A6 is not left off the road during the process. The new turbo is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over up to 10 instalments.
Common causes of turbo failure on the 3.0 TDI quattro
On this V6 diesel engine, premature turbo failure is most often caused by inadequate lubrication due to poor-quality oil or missed oil changes, a clogged air filter allowing contaminants through, or a cracked intercooler disrupting air pressure. Driving habits that involve hard acceleration followed by immediately switching off the engine also accelerate wear on the turbo bearings.
Points to check before fitting
- Check the condition of the oil circuit and replace the oil filter
- Check for leaks or blockages in the oil feed and return pipes
- Inspect the air intake and air filter
- Prime the turbo with oil before starting the engine
These checks reduce the risk of premature failure and ensure a smooth recommissioning of your Audi A6 3.0 TDI quattro.
