🔧 Technical Need advice on rebuilding or replacing Turbocharger for 2014 Porsche Cayenne Diesel

There's a few things to note here:
1-If the compressor and turbine have milling at the top they were individually balanced. Theoretically you could DIY that
2-They're not super complicated
3-They can be a pain in the ass to get apart, especially the turbine housing and its bolts
4-You may need a weird kit for it if it's a VGT turbo. Not really sure.

I fix good s*** not s*** on a porch.
If you can find the Garrett kit it's probably not that difficult but the $1,000 price for the one sounds like a fairly decent unit I've come across what looks like companies using the cheap Chinese turbos and going through them and rebalancing them.
That may be what that is as the Garrett stuff has been copied forever along with the holeset stuff

750$ ebay knockoff volvo turbo I chucked on my old man's truck was still going strong after 200k
Same engine as a TDI Touareg and I believe TDI A6 and Q7. I bet there's more Intel out there on those applications.
Good luck!
Good luck!
Yeah the junkyard turbos I'm finding are all off the VW's, which is why I thought they would be a bit cheaper and expected more aftermarket options.
I'm friendly with a turbo company, I could ask the guy if he suggests a rebuild place or a replacement unit. Want me to ask?
Thanks, I just called R&S as
Mr_Roboto suggested and those guys were great. They told me to check my air filter and crank case pressure first as those may be causing the oil leaks. Then if that isn’t the issue they said I can bring them the turbo and they can rebuild.
Pro Stock John i appreciate the offer and will let you know if I need additional info.
I guess you could tweak the catch can / crank pressure setup and if that does not work the turbo needs news seals eh.
