Frequently asked questions about turbocharger repair & replacements in Edinburgh
Read our answers to questions about turbocharger repair costs, symptoms and more.
What does a turbocharger replacement in Edinburgh involve?
A mechanic will come to assess the situation around the turbocharger. They will then remove and replace the old turbocharger as requested. The engine will be checked and the car taken will be taken for a test drive where required, with any adjustments being made after that.
How do I know if my Turbo needs replacing?
Faulty turbochargers are not easily identified, the most obvious signs will be less power and a decreased fuel efficiency, emissions may also be worse. This will cost you a lot of money in the long term, as the car will be using more fuel, so it's important you get a qualified mechanic to repair it.
How long will a turbocharger replacement take in Edinburgh?
On average a turbocharger replacement will usually take around 3 hours, but can take anywhere from 2 to over 4 hours. The time that the job takes will depend on a range of factors. For example, your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
What happens if my turbo breaks?
If your turbo breaks in your car, your engine will lose power and your car will go into "limp mode." This means that your car will only be able to go a very slow speed until you get it fixed.
Is a faulty turbocharger an MOT failure?
It is likely that a faulty turbocharger will lead to an MOT failure as it can result in excessive exhaust smoke, power loss and an illuminated check engine light.
Can Edinburgh garages offer home collection and delivery for turbocharger repair?
