Starting to get some noises from the turbo on our 2.5 TD bongo. How easy is to to strip out and replace and would a second hand one be OK.

not bad really, there are some pics and helpful bits in this link.

i would do it before it fails if your sure its that as you have oil and water there too so if it goes bang it could run uncontrollably on the engine oil as fuel, or contaminate your coolant with oil or vice versa, they do split in half so you could have a look inside as the link shows or is it just carbon build up, if it is you could try a turbo cleaning additive.
