Sorry guys ill explain....
£500 was what was spent on, Labour for removing and fitting of new turbo and included buying the new, turbo intercooler and DV (kindly thrown in!)
the garage also flushed the engine and put in fresh oil with a new filter.
The £500 includes all of the above with the what it cost me to transport the car the 30 miles to the garage with friends giving me lifts there and back.
Although the garage probably should have done a comp test first time around diagnosing the turbo as the cause was a reasonable thing to do as i saw the old one and it was definately fubar'd.
The garage had definately put oil in the car as i checked it when i first picked the car up.
Are comp tests a pain on the scooby boxer engine? as i changed the plugs my self and i know theres not a lot of room in there???
Thanks for the replys guys.......might be looking for a new lump soon......lol
Oh and now the missus has told me the cookers stopped working......one thing after another at the moment....... ive told her that cooking of food is not that important and we will just have to wait until the scoobys back on the road first.....................im sure she'll understand
