The pfoemobile has died! Help please

It's been a dramatic few days capped off by my 2008 Jetta TDI spitting it's turbo at speed!

My question to you is; is it worth replacing the turbo and taking a punt on a dead engine or just relegate it to the great scrapheap in the sky.
Would be a shame as she's a beauty!

That's bad news pfoe.
Not sure what to advise?
My 1985 Jetta GT Special I suspect went skyward many moons ago!
Still, I remember its great handling, build quality, Zender spoiler kit and special paint job with youthful affection.

Hopefully a positive solution will reach out to you.

These turbos are relatively inexpensive to buy or get rebuilt. If the engine hasn't swallowed any metal just replace and carry on?

Drain the oil through a sieve, look for metal...

Update!

Today I found out the engine still runs :-)

Bought a new car today. 2014 Leon FR tech for a bargain £8k

Now the question is; repair the turbo and sell on or sell as a repair.

Great shout on it being inexpensive to change. I could likely do it myself to be fair.

Also, sieving the oil is top of the list!

Glad to hear it’s not dead, you’d get more if it was running with a replacement turbo. Enjoy your Leon
