I have just received my bill for a ream of work needed on my Tdci and have been charged £884 just for the turbo (part only) - has anyone else had one fitted to theirs recently, if so was the price in this region? My C-max is a 2004 TDCi, 135 bhp

Hi and welcome never needed one unfortunately sounds like a lot to me .

Hi & welcome,this does seem a lot.Was it done by ford or an independant garage?

 

[wody12174]

Independent garage but part supplied by Ford

 

[MetalMicky08]

Sounds like ford made money out of supplying your parts.But as the turbo went,no way round it without searching for one yourself.

I think you should have a search on the net and see what comes up or even phone a local Ford dealer and see what they charge.
But IMHO I think that is what they may charge.
I got stung £310 'ish for ONE new injector from Ford and I think that was at a discount

try here for turbo's
http://www.btnturbo.com/
They are the main dealers for garrett who I think are the manuf's for at least the variable geometry turbo from the 1.6 - AND they do exchange units

hi there that does seem very dear my mate has a renault megane 53 reg with 70k on the clock his turbo went and he had to pay 600 pound i think to have it fited and supplied. I would get it done from a good back street garage non ford in other words and request a garret turbo which would more than likely be supplied as they would prob say the oem one is pants and replace it with that type
