    Turbo Lifespan

    How many miles have you got out of it ? My RS2 is at 107000 on (as far as I can tell) the original.

      230k miles on a stock Ur-S4 when it started to leak oil into the hotside.

        164,000 K24 in my S2, no signs of trouble yet. 60,000 on an AMD remap too!

        Cheers,

        Steve.

            178,000 on what seems like the original turbo.

              Come on all of you. IMHO this will be a useful thread for folk to look up when they think a 'puff of smoke' means the end of the turbo
