My 603 turbo had died. Very noisy and knocky. Its probably done 180-200k miles. Anyway i'm looking fir a firm that could remanufacture it. That is to factory tolerances and returning it to zero miles condition. Any had a good experience with any firms in the Uk at reasonable price? Quotes so for a cheaper than i thought but still needs swapping costs ontop.

Any ideas how much a good working 603 injection pump would go for? Might be needed by anyone doing 606 upgrade.

The Turbo is fine....the engine has a nasty piston / bore noise......i think!
