Check to see if your hoses are ok ok one might have popped off. Re price if it is turbo your looking at 1200-1500 at main dealer price with a new turbo. And prob no less than 700 8f you got a recon unit and went to an independent garage. all depends on what damage the turno has done to the engine etc as some send shards into engine , intercooler , hoses and everything so do thiusands of pounds worth of damage. Engine may just need a proper flush to ensure there are no tiny fragments of turbine, otherwise they will blow the new turbo when fitted.

Just seen this message after the best possible outcome! It was a pipe that had popped off! £15 at my local garage to find the fault and put it right! That's a relief!
Thanks.

Hopefully it wont pop off again but bare it in mind for a while when flooring it as sometimes they keep doing it

Pollen filter is the 1KO 819 644 B and you will need the oil filter to see that. I presume the code on the code is the part number for the housing and not the filter

I feel your pain mate, been there more than once.........

 

[Asce]

Rob, going by the pictures it looks the same as mine. I will pop out at lunch and see if my housing for the fuel filter is the same code, as the fuel filter was the correct one for me.

 

[Rob_Talisman]

nice one mate appreciate that.

keep searching google with the numbers for that filter and the pollen filter and cant see any that match.........

According to ETKA, this should be the fuel filter for your housing.

Rob, checked my housing and its the same 3C0 127 400 C. The filter i linked to, should be the correct one unless someone else here says otherwise.

did you fit yours last night?

putting my detials in on the site gave me 3 different sizes, but if yours fits that housing then should be ok.

 

[Asce]

Fits. Even double checked with the one i was taking out. The rubber o-ring that it came with is the correct size as i haven't had any issues with diesel going past the o-ring like last time.
