Turbo Rebuild

A rebuild keeps the turbo that came off your vehicle. Send it to our Essex workshop and our technicians strip it, repair it and return the same unit to you, built back to the original specification and covered by warranty.

Rebuild Your Own Turbo With Our Workshop

Rebuilds suit the units that are hard to replace off the shelf, from the Defender TD5 turbo and the Land Rover Discovery 4 turbo to the Nissan Navara turbo. Pick your brand to see what we work on, or send us the part number from the identification plate and we will tell you what the rebuild involves.

How a Turbo Rebuild Works

Send the turbo in or drop it at the workshop. It is stripped down, cleaned and inspected, and we come back to you with what it needs and what it costs before any work starts. Nothing is done until you agree the quote.

The unit is then rebuilt with new internal parts, the core is balanced at operating speed and the finished turbo is tested against the original specification. Your own turbo goes back to you with a 1 to 2 year unlimited mileage warranty, the same cover we put on every unit that leaves the workshop.

We aim to be the fastest, most reliable turbo rebuild specialist for garages and drivers across the UK.

When a Rebuilt Turbocharger Beats an Exchange

An exchange unit is quicker because it is already on the shelf. A rebuild takes longer because the work happens on your own turbo, but it is the better route when the part number is rare, when the vehicle is a classic, or when the unit has been modified and matching it matters.

It is also the answer when no core is available to swap. Send the turbo in and we will tell you honestly whether a rebuild or a remanufactured turbo suits the job better.

  • Your own unit comes back, with its original casting and part numbers intact
  • The right route for rare, classic and modified turbos we do not hold in stock
  • You are quoted after the strip down, so nothing is done before you agree it
  • New internal parts, a balanced core and a full test against the original specification
  • Backed by the same 1 to 2 year unlimited mileage warranty as our exchange units

Book a Turbo Rebuild Today

To book a turbo rebuild, send us your registration number or the part number from the identification plate on the turbo. Drain the oil and pack the unit complete, with the housings and actuator still fitted. We will confirm what we have received, quote after the strip down, and tell you how long the work will take.

Garages and mobile mechanics sending several units a month can talk to the team about turnaround times. If a customer is waiting on the vehicle, say so when you book it in and we will tell you whether an exchange unit would get them moving sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions About Turbo Rebuilds

Most rebuilds are turned around in a few working days once the unit reaches the workshop. We confirm the timescale when we quote, after the strip down, because that is the point at which we know what the turbo needs.

Yes. That is the difference between a rebuild and an exchange. The unit you send in is the unit that comes back, with its original casting and part numbers, rebuilt to the specification it left the factory with.

It needs to be complete and repairable, with the housings and actuator still fitted, and drained of oil before packing. Normal wear is expected. If the shaft has broken up or the housings are damaged, tell the team when you book it in.

In most cases yes, and on older units a rebuild is often the only route because the part number is no longer available new. We quote after the strip down so you can weigh it up before committing.

Yes. Every rebuild carries a 1 to 2 year unlimited mileage warranty, the same cover as our exchange and reconditioned units. The warranty is unlimited on mileage, so it suits high mileage vehicles as well as light users.
