OK, so here is the story. My turbo was making a loud squeeling sound and not spooling up. So my plan was to do a T-25 to TD-04 swap. So I order this TD-04 (so I thought) and the guy at a yard up north sends me a T-25. No big deal, I want to fix the problem, so I install the very ugly "new" one. Now my car is even louder, spools up less, and smokes like a chimney.
So, what is the next step after getting my money back from the yard that sold this POS to me? Should I rebuild my old one that has 125K on it? Tear it apart and have a look inside and try to rebuild it myself, or push this car off a cliff? BTW, it's a 97 CSE.
Does anyone know of a good place that rebuilds these turbos? Please don't say my local diesel mechanic may be able to help me out. Give me the name of some turbo rebuilders.
Thanks
Frustrated Tom!
