Dealer Paperwork for Turbo Replacement for Rattling Wastegates

joec500 · 05-03-2010, 09:12 PM

I just thought I would share what the paperwork for the turbo replacement due to rattling wastegates. I think the Part # list will be useful for people doing their own turbo replacements.

Are these parts new? Typically such parts have core exchanges. I suppose if we knew a tech we could ask him/her....

Looks like I will be heading this route as well. Thanks for the great info, it will help on my next visit to the service dept.

glad to hear all of the recent wastegate issues being identified and taken care of. I have been putting off my trip to the dealer for the infamous rattle, but will be going soon to get the fix as well. Thanks for sharing this!

joec500 · 05-04-2010, 11:04 AM

I checked the part # and it's the newest revision of this part.

joec500 · 07-13-2010, 01:37 PM

Bump...seems like turbo replacements are a common subject lately, here are the latest part number replacements as of last may

320Devil · 07-14-2010, 02:35 AM

Just got mine back from the dealer with two new turbos as well. Brought my 2008 135i in for wastegate ratlle at 47,500 miles.

sonorous · 07-14-2010, 10:17 AM

Just to add a further timeline to this, I had both turbos replaced in Aug 09 and the part numbers on my invoice match these being described as the "newest revision". That was at 36k and I am at 53k now with no problems.

Natural335 · 07-14-2010, 04:20 PM

Just had mine replaced for the same rattle at 41k. Same part number. Hell yea!! My service adviser recommended that I wait at least 1000 miles to give them a chance to break in.... anyone else follow this?
