635D Turbo Failure

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could help me? A few days ago my car started to make a funny whistle noise from the engine. I carried on driving. Monday morning i noticed my car was lacking in power, if i put my foot down it wouldnt move as it useto.

I put on the diagnostics machine and found the following error codes-

4212 Glow plug cylinder 1 activation
4222 Glow Plug cylinder 2 activation
4530 charge air pressure control small turbo control deviation

I gave it into bmw this morning and they came back with the small turbo needs replacing :s

The car is 2008 reg and has only done 50,000 miles, i bought it from bmw last year.

Did anyone else have similar problem? I personally think it cannot be the turbo at 50,000 ,miles!!

A common problem which people had is the solenoid value

The turbo will cost me nearly £1500 !

Any help is welcome or any other recommended garages.

Thanks
Paul
