Have a late 2005 2L TDI that has done 66K.
This arvo changed the oil on the dub.
Have put in MOTUL 5w40 that is 505 01 approved.
When the lower pan was off i discovered that the inner RHS driveshaft boot has split.
Being just below the turbo was wondering if radiated heat contributed to the failure?
Has anybody had this type of failure yet?
My other euro trash cars (Renaults) have gone on to do many 100's of 1000's of K's before boot failure.
Regards
David
