How to choose

1. Verify the OEM reference and engine code to confirm exact fitment for the 2.0 TDI 136 hp platform before ordering.
2. Assess the turbo’s condition, including whether it is generalüberholt or werksüberholt, to gauge its remaining service life.
3. Check packaging for bulk handling suitability if ordering for a garage or fleet maintenance program.
4. Confirm the presence of a geometry variable system to match the engine’s performance requirements.
5. Evaluate the return policy for used cores to avoid unnecessary costs during the exchange process.
6. Prioritize turbos with clear documentation of remanufacturing processes to ensure consistent quality.
7. Consider the lead time for delivery, especially for urgent repairs where downtime is critical.

Storage & logistics

For garages and wholesalers, storing exchange standard turbos requires controlled environments to prevent contamination or damage. Units should be kept in sealed packaging until installation, with temperature and humidity levels monitored to preserve the turbo’s internal components. Rotation systems must be implemented to ensure older stock is used first, reducing the risk of obsolescence. Logistics should include designated areas for core returns, where used turbos are inspected for damage before processing refunds or exchanges.
