    Cost for Turbo Replacement - HELP NEEDED!

    Hi
    I am new to this, so please bear with me.
    I have a 2008 520 BMW. Turbo needs replacing. When loosely talking to mechanic (without checking car but going by signs) he said he thinks it's turbo. When i asked how much is said a couple of hundred.
    The actual quote is now E950. Big jump. Does this feel right to you?

    Many thanks, Sean

    I assume this is a 520d, turbo's are not cheap to replace nor rebuild for that matter. You would be looking at 300+ for a rebuild plus shop hours to remove and install.

    If you don't think the turbo needs replacing, get a second opinion. If you agree the turbo is bad, call another shop and get a quote on replacement cost.
