    I would be asking for a full and complete detail of what exactly has happened. Next time it may be out of warranty and turbos aren't cheap.
    .

    It's lifetime warranty upto 100,000 miles (as i found out today).

    I will defo ask what caused it.... and it's a Exclusiv 1.3 CDTI Ecoflex

    Otherwise, pre-reg vehicles and ex demos would be being offered without warranty which makes no sense.

    Mine was pre-reg (it has 5 miles on the clock when I bought it) - But i still got the lifetime warranty

    And it probably isn't the whole turbo, but in terms of cost of a warranty claim it is probably cheaper to replace a single part.

    I would agree - where you might normally strip and replace seals, they probably just bolt on a new unit.
