1994 Barth Regency here... 34 foot... Diesel Pusher 250 hp with full Banks...

We were on vacation and noticed the backup camera is all greasy. I am told that the turbo charger is leaking and needs to be replaced or repaired.

If any members here have any knowledge, tips, ideas, suggestions, please contact me with any advice you may have. I am interested to know what is a fair price to have a rebuilt unit installed. The service people are telling me that nobody makes them anymore for this RV.

Thanks very much my Barth Brothers (and Sisters)

It would help to know the manufacturer, model, and output of your engine...

As reported in his ad on Craigslist, the turbocharger that blew up was "repaired loose connections" and the coach is ready for sale.
