problem with my turbo

Postby mariotest » Tue Oct 13, 2009 6:37 pm

I have a 1991 940 turbo, that smoke oil due a leak in the turbo. Plate in the turbo only shows Volvo and numbers T004H-136 and 14970. How i know the manufacturer to buy a repair kit. And if posible where buy it in the internet. Thanks anticipated. Mario Testani

13C turbo...

upgrade to a 15G?

There is a guy over at turbobricks.com who is a turboparts dealer.
he can provide you with decent prices and has a pretty good reputation.

Create and account over at turbobricks.com and PM tryingbe

Or just go to his profile page and contact him via email.

Good luck!

When the turbo seals went on my 13c, I swapped it out for a 16T. So much better.

Talk to TryingBe on TurboBricks.com. I was able to get a rebuilt 16T turbo from him for around 500 dollars. He had it re-clocked for me so that it would bolt up to the manifold. Then it is just an even swap. Unbolt the old turbo and bolt in the new one. Took me about 2 to 3 hours, mainly because I wanted to take my time and it was only 35 degrees outside.

tryingbe should get back to you. he might not be on when you send the message. Once he gets the message, he will see what he has...

Give him one day, then send another PM saying Urgent in the title.

Maybe even posting a Wanted add in the wanted section at turbobricks will net you something...

good luck.
