Yeah.  You'd think that ...

I just got a turbo for a WR using an AX number.  Rebuilt?  I don't
think so - it was immaculate.  Yeah - you have to return some hardware
to get the price - but is it ever rebuilt, or is Audi's purpose simply
to get the carcase off the market?  Since the warranty on the part is
the same, and warranty service is expen$$$ive, perhaps it pays them to
ship new parts?
