New Volkswagen Golf Turbo – Ref. 713673-5007S

Diagnosing the turbo on your Volkswagen Golf 1.9 TDI 115 before replacement

Before ordering a new turbo for your Volkswagen Golf, it is essential to confirm that the turbo is actually the cause of the problem. On 1.9 TDI 115 engines fitted with the AJM or AUY engine codes, a gradual loss of power, blue or black exhaust smoke, an unusual whistling noise under acceleration, or an illuminated engine warning light are all tell-tale signs of a turbo nearing the end of its life. It is advisable to check the condition of the intake hose, the play in the turbo shaft by hand, and any oil deposits in the air circuit before concluding that the turbocharger needs replacing.

Fitting advice for your Golf 1.9 TDI turbo

Turbo failure on a 1.9 TDI engine is most commonly caused by inadequate lubrication, unsuitable oil quality, overdue oil changes, a clogged air filter, or a cracked intercooler allowing contaminants into the system.
