Hey - I have 1st July 2014 registered A45. I put my car in for its first service at 3950 miles. I was told they would check my turbo anyways - turns out it had gone so i've had to have a new turbo fitted under warranty.

Hope all well after turbo re-fit.
Just make sure everything is put back together secure

My wife is now telling me the car is clunky and rough in the morning , jumps gears until warmed up.
