Replacing bad turbos...
Hey people, I need some advice. I just had one of my turbos(driverside) die on my 2000 A6 2.7T and am waiting for the new one to come in. Is it true that turbos need to be replaced in pairs? The mechanic said the other one is good and I will have to pay if it is replaced. Is there a TSB or something on this? Also I'm thinking of repalcing thr downpipes now the the turbo work is being done. Where are my options, prices?
Thanks,
Thanks,

Found it...

The turbochargers must be replaced
in pairs
To maintain a synchronous air-flow
through the two chargers, it is
important to observe this instruction
to account for manufacturing
tolerances.
Now I am ARMED...
