Hello,
I've removed the N55 from my 2011 535xi due to a bad rod bearing and would like to refresh the turbo before I put the engine back in the car. Are there any local shops in Minnesota that you like and recommend that specialize in turbo rebuilding? Thank you. Steve
Hi Steve. We don't perform a lot of turbo maintenance but we have had a few good experiences with AGP Turbo for any rebuilds we have had in the shop, they are located in Arizona. Surely some of the other mechanic based shops may have an additional recommendation. -Brian

I used this place in Burnsville for my old-school (Tri-K's) stuff.
Couldn't hurt to see what they say about your "new-school lite-duty"
(by truck standards) turbo.
Pricing was right in line w/ mail-it-off places, but much faster & local!
Good Luck! and keep us posted.

With your recommendations, I decided to call Diesel Components because I can easily drive there and they were great. He worked up a very reasonable price of $450 to rebuild the unit if it only needs new bearings. The turn-around time is 3-4 days which is way quicker than I need, as this project will take a while. Thank you for the advise! I appreciate it. Steve
