    Honest John advises that the oil feed pipe to the turbo bearing should be renewed periodically because these often get bunged up with carbon.

    My daughter's car is a 1.9 Golf diesel (08), with 70,000 miles on the clock (no DPF). Lots of short trips, interspersed with one long weekly trip on the motorway.

    How big a job is it to change that oil feed pipe and how much should it cost ?

    If you service it regularly with the correct spec oil it shouldn't be necessary.
