    Would they warranty turbos (assuming they are original) that have 914,000 miles on them, even after being inspected?

    I think they will as long as they check out fine or maybe they'll say they have to be replaced and then he'll get full warranty. Definitely worth looking into, especially with twin turbos. Your looking around 7k said and done if they go.

    I did the platinum on mine a little over two years ago, had the turbos replaced as well, and they are covered under the four year unlimited mileage warranty.

    Most definitely check that turbo even a slight oil leak will cause major damage remember your turbo is both intake and exhaust if it blows you can shred viable internal and external components check your exhaust as well brakes etc. if brakes are worn that's more $$$$ down the road

    the twin turbos can be changed to a single turbo and you will get a mpg increase and power increase. Also on an 06 there is no egr contrary to popular belief. Cat tried to go a dif route to meet emission requirements
