N14 vs N18 JCW Turbo - any differences?
Hi all,
Are there any major differences between the Turbo’s on the N14 and N18 fJCW?
From what I understand the turbine and compressor wheels are the same size on both? But there are multiple part numbers so assume there must be some minor differences?
Cheers.

Your dealer will tell you from the VIN number. I have a very noisy waste gate at cold start and this is why I asked the question about the turbo.
I know it will eventually fail but I am in peace of mind since they confirmed I am covered from my VIN ID.

Read carefully what I wrote ........ check with your dealer and VIN and you will know if it applies or not.
I did my homework and they told me It is covered for mine by the extended warranty. Maybe the bigger JCW turbo is more prone to failure than the S models. Just speculation here saying that but at least its safe to know before being ripped off by a repair shop that would eventually charge more than $3K-$4K to fix it.
