Turbo interchangeability
I seem to have an oil leak from the turbo (external-could easily be from above so I need to strip out some pieces to take a better look)
But if the turbo itself needs changing, does anyone please know if an ABY engine Turbo would fit? according to 7zap, the part numbers are MB Engine (mine) - 035 145 702 LX and for the ABY engine is 034 145 702 So they are "close" but I do not know if they are interchangeable! Thanks! |

MB uses a K26
S2 is K24 The oil and water lines may not match up correctly.

Good news-the leak is not from the turbo itself but from the oil supply line (gasket 035145773D ). Average news-its going to be tricky tightening the new one-one it is pretty inaccessible. Bad news-not in stock in the U.K. Available for 99cents in the USA (plus $20 postage! ) Thanks to Mike, I replaced the lower (return) oil gasket already which was leaking too. THis showed the thickness of the gasket at 0.75mm, so unless anyone can suggest a reasonably priced replacement it looks like I'll be buying a sheet of gasket material and cutting my own using original as a pattern. First I may try to nip the nuts up a little on the one on the car, but it's a bit hot down there at the moment after my efforts to find the source! |

I had difficulty obtaining the seals on my S2. I found one on ebay that was for a Bentley and it fitted fine. You can also buy a turbo fitting kit from Auto doc which comes with two seals, pipe gaskets and new nuts. Think it was about £20 from memory.

Getting a gasket sheet in case you have one Mike. (The RSPCA benefitted from you sending me the last one-I donated a few quid in their shop Last week-in coins so killed two Birds with one stone!) |

Also remember now that RS2 ones are available from Audi Tradition. I have a contact in Germany that could get a couple for you if you want OE.

Thanks-but am happy with aftermarket for straightforward stuff like gaskets-albeit heat and oil resistant gaskets.
All clean and showered now. Enough for the day and gardening tomorrow. Next week=small fixes like replacing washer fluid tube and then hopefully clutch slave at the weekend. |

Not got one of these lying around.
It's common with the 20v turbo as it's the same fitment. Seems to be readily available from Autodoc etc - problem is you need to wait at least a week. Pete Reeve of quattro corner may have one if you need it quickly.

Thanks for looking. I tried AUTODOC and the site showed out of stock. I'll get a gasket sheet and cut it myself. Then I'll have plenty of spare for any more!
Cheers! |
