My Vigo is 15 years old and has done 320k km. I've had it from new and try to keep it in best condition - (at that age, it soon becomes a 'banger' if let slip!).

 

When accelerating from low speed, there was a marked hesitation before the sudden surge of the turbo. I asked Toyota to check out the turbo, which had been serviced once before.

 

I was surprised that Toyota replaced the 'inlet manifold' and gasket of course. I'm not complaining but I don't understand how this impressive casting, could have been the problem. Can the manifold warp with time? FWIW, the manifold, for what it is, seems cheap at the price.

 

Any comments would be appreciated . . . .

You are lucky it wasn't the actual turbo, 10 out of 10 for your dealer being honest.

 

Did they give you the old one to examine......?
