Is there much difference in the design of a turbo for a diesel as opposed to one for a petrol engine?
I ask because I've heard generally turbos in petrol engines are good for around 70k or so before problems start and wondered if this was similar for a diesel (in my case a 1.8TDi Focus)

Diesel turbos run much cooler than petrol ones, and much less likely to be on extreme performance machines getting thrashed. Plenty of diesel turbos around that have covered 200+k miles without trouble - just keep changing the oil as recommended and use a decent one!

Is it illogical? It must be Citroen....
