Cheers for the advice. I think the local garage charge about £60 an hour but I've been using them since '99 and trust them. I did phone around to get quotes for labour on the DMF/clutch & they were all much the same (£460). Nothing's cheap round here unfortunately. I also forgot to mention the £1800 included new front discs (warped) & some suspension bits.
Forgive my ignorance in asking this as don't know much about turbos. I think the garage suggested it was a problem with the wastegate. I noticed small puffs of what was probably exhaust from behind the rocker cover when the engine was revved. There isn't really a loss of power. Since the car's been well serviced I assume the chance of the bearings or seals biting the dust is relatively slim?
