WTB: 1Z/AHU Turbo (GT15 or K03-006) Wastegated
« on: July 03, 2012, 10:17:06 pm »
I'm looking for a GT15 or K03-006 wastegated turbo from a 1Z/AHU engine. New, used in working condition, or rebuild able works for me. Anybody got one they would like to part with?



Thanks!

I have a good core for 50 plus shipping.

The GT15 is my first choice, as I can easily find a rebuild kit. Anyone have a lead on a rebuild kit for the TDI K03?

There are a ton of k03 rebuild kits on ebay; 98% are going to be chinese, but these guys have a US/UK-made kit:

You should crack the turbo open before ordering a kit to see whether you need a single feed bearing or a double feed bearing. My k03 needs a single feed, so that's what I posted. But if you need a double feed kit, these guys have one as well.

For 225.00 plus shipping you get 1 day turnaround and it is perfect. Completely restored to like new condition. The 225 is for all turbos not needing wheels or hard parts. In my opinion this is a no brainer.

Sounds like this turbo is no longer available then? Anyone else got one?
