Skoda Octavia Turbo Failure

[OprahWinfrey]

Hey Guys,

My much beloved Skoda Octavia had her turbo fail and I had to get towed. Does anyone know where you can source an aftermarket part in Aus? IF anyone has had a similar issue, what is the cost of replacing the part?

I've had the car since new (210k) and this is the first major issue. I really don't want to part with her yet.

Dave, Not much information there. Year model, engine size and fuel ?

I'd look at a reputable Volkswagen shop.
I go to CamdenGTI, they did my TDI big turbo build and the owner (Matt) is a diesel nut.
