hi so new to the forums, this is my first post!
So as the title says my tdi ran away, i was giving it some down a quite lane and all of a sudden my turbo cluckned, white smoked poured out the back, i turned the car off and it still ran managed to dip the clutch and it it died with another puff of white smoke. this runaway lasted about 4-5 seconds in all and dont believe it went over 3k RPM.
so what ive done is striped the car of its turbo, inlet, inter cooler, oil , and piping to see what damage is done.
the turbo is knackerd i need a new one, this ones all chewed up.
inter cooler was full of oil (engine only had 500-700ml left in it when drained)
and there was oil in the inlet manifold aswell.
now my question is what do i next? their is no oil left in the engine however when i turn the ignition on (not turning it over now..) i dont get a low oil light so should i take the sump off or would i need to start it to find out?
should i clean the back of the engine? so fill with oil take glow plugs out take injector wire off and turn it over?
and should i upgrade whilst im in there?
thanks in advance
just for refrence my car is a 2002 1.9 TDI golf 100pd and has 145000 miles on it
Also i tried turning the engine by puting one wheel on the floor and the other up and putting it in gear and turning it but no luck, is this ment to happen? is it usually quite hard to do?
anyway thanks again!
