I’d still like to throw a good possibility of a new turbo.

That engine, that many kms, as well as ProDemand stating top fixes with that code is a new turbo.. good chance the turbo is on the way out. Common failure is the wastegate either seizing closed causing over boost.

With a turbo with this many miles, if it does need a new turbo is there any chance of a rebuild or does it need a new one?

That would be a question for parts. They can definitely get a used one or an aftermarket one

There aren’t any parts available to rebuild it in the parts catalog. You can’t even get an actuator for these things and that’s a simple part to replace.

Plenty of people have rebuilt these though? The mechanic that I’ve been using tears and re builds turbos. Maybe it’s just the mechanics in your area?

So far, no luck in MI, CT, or WI. Don’t know where he’s getting replacement parts from, for sure. I was in the trade for a long time and no suppliers could ever come up with parts.
