WAG Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 For the last 3 days, I'm getting random small puffs of blue smoke from the tailpipe. It is not constant, maybe once or twice while I drive. Car has 170K miles so I think is time for a new turbo. Car has new PCV, water pump, and time belt. I had just installed an EST dual exhaust, ipd CAI, and changed the oil about a week ago. Looking for some ideas and options as to what to do. New turbo? refurbished turbo? and what else to replace along with the turbo. Also a price range and part (re)sources if possible.

jablackburn Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 The cheapest, and probably best option IMO would be to rebuild it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mitsubishi-TD04H-TE04H-Turbo-Rebuild-Kit-Volvo-850-Saab-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem414ff9bdd0QQitemZ280514641360QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories If you're looking for a new one, I would be inclined to upgrade to an 18T rather than buy another 16.

I forgot to mention that the car is a 1998 V70R, so I believe I already have a 18T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
