Blown Turbo

[zilch]

Sad to say on the last day of the Sports trip to Cape York, whilst at Musgrave Roadhouse before the final run into Cairns, it blew one of its Turbo's :censored:
Waiting for Trinity Cairns to get a quote to Allianz and get permission to start on fitting a new one..apart from that it behaved admirably on the Trip including
some of the OTT crossings

Sad to hear,hope the repair is swift.
You mentioned Alianz,is the repair covered under warranty or is it a lease vehicle????.
Interested as Im going to get a quote for a D4 through our work salary sacrifice program.
Cheers

Bugger zilch. Glad you had a good trip, aparently it's really good up there.
Do you know if it's the actuator arms or the entire turbo. Had turbos fail myself.

Told one of the actual turbos went

The vehicle is 3.5 years old hence Allianz are on the Hook not LR as they underwrite the extended 2 year warranty period when i took out the option

Sorry to hear of your woes - at least it was at the end of the trip!

Cheers,

Not good to hear hope they get it fixed soon

now told it was limited to a buggered actuator, that has been replaced and apparently its purring again.. Will head up to Cairns late next week and pick it up, and maybe have a quick run through the Bloomfield track before heading south to Sydney
