Those codes point to DPF and EGR problems. what code reader are you using?

Hopefully it was stupidly cheap and you'll be able to recoup your losses by selling the bits that still work to someone daft enough to buy them ;)

Police workshops up and down the country have spent millions trying to keep theirs running long enough to get to the auctions...

Fit a new oil feed pipe aswell, as these are usually clogged with sludge. Also there is an inline filter somewhere whitch schould be renewed or removed.

Leaking injectors is a very common cause of dead turbos on these engines, i cant remember exactly how but the leak forms sludge that enters the oilways.. :-\
But (as all turbo Engines) these require oil changes with MAX 12K intervalls   

Google if you want to know more..

Ensure that you flush the intercooler thoroughly. Which makes a lovely mess.
