Has nobody tried emailing Garrett regarding these problems, and to get the correct picture as to construction materials? from the horses mouth?

 

from an american company?? lol..

 

I have had my fill of american companies, you should have heard the conversations I had with Rotora. Black is White apparently :)

 

The UK contact someone had would be the best bet.

If someone e-mails me a couple of high definition photos of the turbine impeller damage I'll ask my turbo man what he thinks caused it. That part number badge looks like it's years old, are these rebuilt units or new ones? Do they come in OE Garrett packaging with OE Garrett paperwork?

 

Unit is 9 months old, brand new, never rebuilt... not possible to rebuild these so I'm told.

 

If he can I would be interested to know, It's a week from going in the bin and I have 3 turbine housings for it.

 

High res pics are at the beginning of the thread Chris.

 

The dirt is there from the blow-by from the manifold.
