Why Turbo Failures Occurs?
Why Turbo Failures Occurs?
Turbo Failures by Turbo OE Number
At Melett, we continually obtain a wealth of useful information about specific turbo numbers and their reasons for failure.
Can DPF Cause Turbo Failure?
DPF is actually responsible for more turbo related failures than you might think. Here we explore what effect a blocked DPF can have on a turbocharger.
Turbo Failure Diagnosis Matrix
What causes a turbocharger to fail and what is the solution? What are the problem signs? What is causing the problem? and What is the solution?
Who do Electronic Actuators Fail?
REA or SREA Electronic Actuators are fitted to a variety of different variable geometry turbos and control the variable vane movement.
Overspeeding
What is overspeeding? Overspeeding is a term used when a turbocharger is operating well above its normal operating limits.
Oil Contamination
Oil is very often overlooked as a critical component, however clean filtered engine oil is a major requirement and a necessity for all turbochargers.
Oil Leaks
Oil is very often overlooked as a critical component, however clean filtered engine oil is a major requirement and a necessity for all turbochargers.
Insufficient Lubrication
If there is Insufficient Lubrication within the turbocharger the consequences can be severe, a lack of oil in any of the lubricated areas can cause premature failure.
Foreign Object Damage
A foreign object is simply any object that enters the turbocharger through the air inlet or exhaust inlet and will will be affected the turbos performance.
REA/SREA
REA (Rotary Electronic Actuator) or SREA (Simple Rotary Electronic Actuator) are fitted to many variable geometry turbos and control the variable vanes.
Overheating
Overheating is a term used to describe components that have been subjected to abnormally high exhaust temperature or insufficient cooling.
