    Have large diesel leak

    Could have a cracked fuel rail or bad cross over line. One way to help find a leak like that is clean everything throughly then cover the rails and line with clean white rags. Drive it a little bit then inspect the rags. Just be mindful to not leave the rags there long as it is a fire hazard.

    Turbo water coolant feed tube failure

    Its probably because they dont know what there doing so they bill as if doing a turbo replacement. The turbo replacement is heavy on labor and time. Almost exactly what they quoted you. But there is no need to pull the turbo for just the coolant line.
