I'm rebuilding my turbo and i need a quick favor.
I have it all taken apart and I need the cold compressor side off...
I have the nut off but I cant pull the wheel off.. I've tried to spin it while holding the hot side but nothing works.
I've also tried gripping the cold side and slightly pulling on it but nothing...
any help please

 

quick bump

 

Its siezed onto the turbine shaft. Try heating it up with a heat gun. I wouldnt recommend using a torch, but if thats all you have.....

 

so how in the hell do i "un -seize" the one off there!?
all i have is a torch

 

and why would it be seized.. the turbo is a rebuild with less then 4000k on it...
sorry i just dont understand how it would so fast

 

bump, I'd like to know about this as well

 

That thread is from 04 if you don't get a reply maybe PM the thread poster and find out what happened . It's probably just stuck a bit . Most turbos go to a shop for work be careful .
