‘Premier Diesel turbos’

[clk320x]

has anyone bought a turbo from ‘premier diesel’?

They seem very cheap for a fully refurbished Garrett turbo and actuator for my e320...

I am thinking of just replacing the entire turbo and actuator instead of just the actuator which is showing as faulty on star..

They actually say 'remanufactured', not 'refurbished', which is good.

Remanufacturing involves stripping the part completely and reusing only the shell (after cleaning, inspecting, and pressure testing) then fitting everything else new including seals, gaskets, bearings, springs, bolts, etc etc.

I have seen this done at a Delphi Diesel pump factory and it's quite amazing. The cost saving is from not having to mould and then machine the light alloy housing.

Me personally... I don't know because I have never used them before... remanufacturing is great but of course it needs to be done by people who know what they are doing and using high-quality components. Though I suppose you could rely on the 100% positive feedback.

I assume that ebay price doesn't include their manditory £100 surcharge at purchase to be refunded on the satisfactory return of the old unit?

If it cured my broken E class I'd happily pay up.

No £120 surcharge Is extra. However if you use the courier exchange service where you hand your old turbo to them when the new one arrives no deposit is needed

I’m surprised yours is having issues at such low mileage. Mine is on original turbo I believe at 225K. Have you driven yours particularly hard??

Probably the opposite.

Like yourself I was doing big miles when I bought it but these days I do very little.

Ah right mate. What codes does it show? Has the actuator been replaced?

100% feedback from 1127 is pretty good! No one moaning.
