Recently had my rr in for a new alternator and the garage has told me he reacons 1 turbo is on its way out , how much is it roughly gonna cost ? And does anyone recommend anyone in NE Scotland to carry out the work ?

Any help would be great

Is there any reason why he suspects that?

I'm just down the road in Dundee, if you need a 2nd opinion

He suspects air flow going between the turbos are different , im currently at work and getting info from the missus so not 100% what he is actually saying , when would you be free for a look mikey ?

Wednesday morning, all day Thursday or any day next week (except Monday)

It is best to do both turbos at a time as it is shell of job. I paid £1500 for refurbished turbos and leibour.

Personally, I wouldn't entertain refurbished turbos on a TDV8...

How busy are you next week mikey ? Was just to see if you was free to come out and look at my rrs as I don't fancy driving it

I'm booked solid for the next 3 weeks, at least

It's always worth waiting for a quality service, well that's what I always think.  John
