Think my turbo has blown...

On the way to work this morning and I started hearing a loud hollow whistling noise, (no smoke) i limped to a dealer which was nearby luckily and have left it with them. Absolutely gutted, car has just reached 100k km's and apart from some initial tyre issues hasnt missed a beat.

Anyone have any ideas what this is likely to cost me if it is the turbo, or maybe what else it could be ?

Thanks

Could be a turbo hose that has blown off.

I really hope so, as long as they dont try to shaft me by saying it is the turbo when it isnt

I'm preparing myself for the worst...
