Default Turbo lady called me today to make an appointment, vs showing up unannounced. New turbos ordered...

<center><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v729/pablomorell/Audi/the_turbo_lady.jpg"></center><p>Went in for 40k maintenance to dealer. I asked them to check the tubos, slight police siren noise since i bought her 6 months ago. Confirmed my suspicion and two new turbos are on order under CPO.

No smoke out of twin2 ever, I still feel a lot of power with APR 93, but i guess i have never felt a healthy s4 with the same setup. Can't wait.

Default He's having them replaced by the dealer so no. They can't order them even if he wanted them.

I have yet to see a dealer that can order Euro parts. If there is one I would love to know.

Default I understand that. If it were me (hypothetically of course)KO4s would be in the trunk and would

just happen to get "mixed up" with the K03s that would somehow get put back in the boxes in the trunk. I KNOW its been done, but no one is willing to publicly say it. Takes a cooperative dealer/installer and a BIG $$ thank you if you get my drift.

Default It sounded like you were asking if he's getting K04's from Audi. Of course he could spend the extra

money and buy K04's and have those put in instead. Been done so many times.

Did you go back to the dealer and ask what is wrong?
