Can blown car turbo be repaired?

In general, a blown car turbo can be repaired, but the extent of the repairs and the cost will depend on the severity of the damage. If the turbo has only sustained minor damage, such as a small leak in the oil seal, it may be possible to repair it by replacing the seal or any other damaged components. However, if the turbo has been more severely damaged, such as if the turbine wheel has been damaged, it may be necessary to replace the entire turbocharger.

The cost of repairing a blown turbo can vary significantly depending on the make and model of the car, as well as the extent of the damage. In some cases, it may be possible to repair a turbo for a few hundred dollars, while in other cases it may cost over a thousand dollars. If the turbo needs to be replaced, the cost can be even higher.

Before deciding whether to repair or replace a blown turbo, it is important to have it diagnosed by a qualified mechanic to determine the extent of the damage and to get an accurate estimate of the cost of repairs.
