new oem turbos (break in period?)

JOHNNY-5 · 11-07-2014, 08:56 PM

Just got my 07 335i back from the dealer after a month.
They installed 2 new oem turbos, replaced HPFP (2nd time in 1.5 years), new TMAP sensor, flushes coolant and replaced both seals, and new power steering pump.

Question is, is there a break in period for the turbos? I have all my bolt ons and cobb waiting to be installed.

Thanks.

No turbos don't need breaking in

My route66 extended warranty paid $4900 for new turbos, power steering, seals and gaskets.

Kuni paid for HPFP under extended warranty

I paid about $640 for diagnosis, leak down test, TMAP sensor, and coolant flush

so even though you had route 66 warranty you still took off all the fbo stuff?

Yes because depending on what it is and the cost, they (route66) might send out someone to look at it.
Rather be safe then sorry.

You paid for a coolant flush, even tho the coolant is drained for turbo replacement ?

Route66 wouldnt pay for fluids per the contract. They will replace the faulty part but no fluids.

I was nice to my rebuilt turbos for 400 miles. Then I unleashed the hounds! No issues since (20,000 already).
