5. Check the packaging for clear labeling of OEM references and motorization compatibility to streamline workshop inventory management.
6. Select a turbo with a core deposit option if returning the old unit is part of your workflow to reduce costs and simplify logistics.

Storage & logistics

For workshops, storing 1.2 TSI 90 hp turbos requires a dry, temperature-controlled environment to prevent moisture damage or corrosion. Organize inventory by motorization and model year to streamline retrieval, and rotate stock regularly to ensure freshness. Bulk packaging should be stored on shelves or pallets to avoid crushing, while individual units must remain in their protective casings until installation. Labeling should include motorization details and remanufacturer information for quick identification during busy repair schedules.
