Audi A3 won't start

Car: Audi A3
Variant: 2.0 tdi 140
Model Year: 2006
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Car will turn over but won't start, the only way to get it to run is disconnect air intake hose (by-passing turbo & intercooler)car only covered 56000 miles, fash well maintained etc. Turbo blown already or something silly?

remove the airbox pipe from the turbo CAREFULLY turn turbo impellor by hand is it free and smooth
check for bent or damaged fins if at all tight turbo will have to be reconditioned
