Hi guys, a friend has a 1.9tdi PD , his turbo is on its way out and leaking oil into the inlet. I read somewhere here the common rail turbo is an upgrade? Do they bolt straight on?
Many thanks
Many thanks
What is the BMM turbo? I have heard of the other 2 and will be needing to replace my turbo in the next while.Mind you, I was born at a young age, but I think the BMM's turbo is the one used as a bolt on upgrade for the BRM. Unfortunately, that puts you in the same boat as your buddy. Good news is that the GTB1749VC from DS will work on your car, but I'm not sure if it's a big enough upgrade to be worth it.
The BMM is the PD140, BMM is the engine code. Both the PD140 or the GTB1749VC are good turbos for our applications. The PD140 will be a little more responsive, the latter will be a little better at higher RPM.
