Turbo lifespan

that dont sound right at all - mind you the bigger tyres you have fitted will make little a bit of difference.

I would suspect that its not the turbo being faulty though.

have you tweaked the pump?

Jason lives in northants, if u go onto the yellowstrap website his mobile no.is on there - have a word with him and im sure that he can post it to you - it has piping on it and unions.

No tweaks to anything!

I took the EGR valve off recently which really helped the low end/slow driving. No effect to the top end unfortunately.

I replaced the Fuel filter about a month (or two?) ago. The filter is K&N and was clean-ish a couple of weeks ago.

I suppose the intercooler is a suspect. It's not been cleaned out since I've had the car.

Get a boost guage on it... if you are struggling that much, my guess is that the turbo isn't boosting properly.  Could well be the actuator... that's what was wrong with Daz's 200 Tdi.
