What changes when you drive your Audi A6 with a fully functioning turbo
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 refinement 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 performance to factory specification, with no 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 data plate of your old turbo, as several variants of this engine block exist depending on the power output and vehicle specification.
Warranty and delivery of the Audi A6 turbo
This turbo is new and sold as a straightforward purchase: no old unit to return — there is no return or collection of your old turbo. A single delivery is made, that of the new turbo, which you can have fitted as soon as it arrives. The new turbo is covered by a 12-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, in up to 10 instalments.
Common causes of failure on the 3.0 TDI quattro
On this V6 diesel engine, premature turbo failure is most often caused by a lubrication fault linked to oil of inadequate quality or missed oil changes, a clogged air filter allowing contaminants through, or a cracked intercooler disrupting air pressure. Driving habits that involve sharp bursts of high revs 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 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.
