Wantto know how long a stock turbo will last on a 1.8T A4 until it needs to get replaced? My car is a 2001 quattro if that makes a difference for the response. Thanks

i know a guy with 250k miles on stock turbo.

im at 130thousand
hopefully my turbo is on its way out... im bored

howbout chipped how much are you guys are at?

This is like asking how long a clutch will last

If you dont want it replace it, the K03 is the smallest factory turbo and from what i hear not as DURABLE as the older kkk turbos. otherwise with good maintence as long as you engine.

As long as the engine, if well maintained. mobil 0w40 every 4-5 k and a good filter, dont drive like an asz and then stop and turn it off. If you let it cool down first, it will last.

I'm at 168K miles. Chipped for the last 90K
