30d Turbo failure on a an E60 5 series
Discussion
Hi All.
mate of mine has an E60 530d. His turbo failed. Not to worry he thought, I have a 3rd party warranty which specifically includes the turbo. Except they have rejected the claim based on the fact the turbo is siezed... The t's and c's do, on very close inspection mention this.
He plans to fight it - but I wondered if anyone had any understanding of how turbo's tend to fail, whether there is an issue with the 30d engines turbo - and how they tend to fail..
I would have thought that however a turbo fails, siezure is likley to occur any how?
Thoughts?
