I have a 2004 Jetta wagon and I want to rebuild my turbo and was looking for some dos and don'ts for this rebuild.

I don't anyone who has managed to rebuild their own turbo, it's quite a piece of kit that takes serious stresses and I reckon it's best given to a pro with the appropriate technology to do the job, I think it was on the garret website that I read they balance these things and spool them up to 250,000 rpm to test them.

On the other hand if you mean you want to strip it down, clean the vnt etc then that's a different story and totally doable, just follow the faq.

Thank you for this information. I was going to buy a new cartridge rebuild the rest.
