Hi,
My turbo is unfortunately cracked on the hot side and is therefore up for replacement.
I've read, that it is advised also to replace the oil pump and oil lines when fitting a new turbo.
I'm having a hard time figuring out if the oil pump chain including tensioner should be replaced as well since there is not much information about it - probably because only very few people have done it as it seems to be a PITA to do since the timing belt and crankshaft sprocket has to come off.
I'm concerned about the fitment of the old chain on the new sprocket of the oil pump if only replacing the pump,
since the old parts will probably have worn together and the chain could have stretched a bit as well.
What are people's experiences?
Thanks!
