2. INSPECTION
1) Cautions During Driving
The following lists cautions to take during test drive and on the turbocharger vehicle, which must be
considered during the operation.
It's important not to drastically increase the engine rpm starting the engine. It could make rotation at
excessive speed even before the journal bearing is lubricated and when the turbocharger rotates in
poor oil supply condition, it could cause damage of bearing seizure within few seconds.
If the engine is running radically after replacing the engine oil or oil filter brings poor oil supply
condition. To avoid this, it's necessary to start off after idling the engine for about 1 minute allowing
oil to circulate to the turbocharger after the replacement.
When the engine is stopped abruptly after driving at high speed, the turbocharger continues to rotate
in condition where the oil pressure is at '0'. In such condition, an oil film between the journal bearing
and the housing shaft journal section gets broken and this causes abrasion of the journal bearing
due to the rapid contact. The repeat of such condition significantly reduces life of the turbocharger.
Therefore, the engine should be stopped possibly in the idle condition. 1.

3.
After string for long period of time during winter season or in the low temperature condition where
the fluidity of engine oil declines, the engine, before being started, should be cranked to circulate
oil and must drive after checking the oil pressure is in normal condition by idling the engine for few
minutes.

2) Inspection of Turbocharger
When problem occurs with the turbocharger, it could cause engine power decline, excessive discharge
of exhaust gas, outbreak of abnormal noise and excessive consumption of oil.
On-board Inspection 1.
Check the bolts and nuts foe looseness or missing
Check the intake and exhaust manifold for looseness or damage
Check the oil supply pipe and drain pipe for damages
Check the housing for crack and deterioration -
-
-
-
Inspection of turbine 2.
Remove the exhaust pipe at the opening of the turbine and check, with a lamp, the existence of
interference of housing and wheel, oil leakage and contamination (at blade edge) of foreign materials.
Interference: In case where the oil leak sign exists, even the small traces of interferences on the
turbine wheel mean, most of times, that abrasion has occurred on the journal bearing. Must
inspect after overhauling the turbocharger.
Oil Leakage: Followings are the reasons for oil leakage condition -
-
Problems in engine: In case where the oil is smeared on inner wall section of the exhaust gas
opening.
Problems in turbocharger: In case where the oil is smeared on only at the exhaust gas
outlet section. *
*
Idling for long period of time can cause oil leakage to the turbine side due to low pressure of exhaust
gas and the rotation speed of turbine wheel. Please note this is not a turbocharger problem.
Oil Drain Pipe Defect
In case where oil flow from the turbocharger sensor housing to the crank case is not smooth
would become the reason for leakage as oil builds up within the center housing. Also, oil thickens
(sludge) at high temperature and becomes the indirect reason of wheel hub section. In such case,
clogging and damage of the oil drain pipe and the pressure of blow-by gas within the crank case
must be inspected.
Damages due to Foreign Materials.
When the foreign materials get into the system, it could induce inner damage as rotating balance
of the turbocharger gets out of alignment. -

3) Inspection of Turbine
Thoroughly check the followings.
Must absolutely not operate the turbocharger with the compressor outlet and inlet opened as it
could damage the turbocharger or be hazardous during inspection.
Interference: In case where is trace of interference or smallest damage on the compressor wheel
means, most of times, that abrasion has occurred on the journal bearing. Must inspect after the
overhaul.
Oil Leakage: The reason for oil leakage at the compressor section is the air cleaner, clogged by
substances such as dust, causes the compressor inlet negative pressure. -
-
Rotating in high speed at no-load for extended period of time can cause oil leakage to the
compressor section as oil pressure within the center housing gets higher than pressure within
the compressor housing.
Overuse of engine break (especially in low gear) in down hill makes significantly low exhaust gas
energy compared to the time where great amount of air is required during idling conditions of the
engine. Therefore, amount of air in the compressor inlet increases but the turbocharge pressure
is not high, which makes negative a.
b.
No problem will occur with the turbocharger if above conditions are found in early stage but oil
leaked over long period of time will solidify at each section causing to breakout secondary defects.
Damages by foreign materials: In case where the compressor wheel is damaged by foreign materials
requires having an overhaul. At this time, it's necessary to check whether the foreign materials have
contaminated intake/exhaust manifold or inside of engine.

4) Possible Causes of Defect
The following tries to understand the defects that can occur with vehicle installed with the turbocharger
and to manage the reasons of such defects.
In case where oil pan/oil pipe has been contaminated, oil filter is defected and where adhesive of
gaskets has been contaminated into the oil line. 1.

06-8
Oil Pump Defect: Rapid over-loaded driving after replacing oil filter and oil and clogging of oil line. 2.

06-91914-01
Turbine Side: Inflow of foreign materials from engine
Compressor Side: such as air filter, muffler and nut 3.

06-10
Defects caused by reasons other than that of the turbocharger. 4.

3. TROUBLESHOOTING
The followings are cautions to take in handling defects of turbocharger, which must be fully aware of.
1) Cautions
After stopping the engine, check whether the bolts on pipe connecting section are loose as well as
the connecting condition of vacuum port and modulator, which is connected to the actuator.
During idling of the engine, check for leakage in the connecting section of pipe (hoses and pipes,
duct connections, after the turbocharger) by applying soap water. The leakage condition in the
engine block and turbine housing opening can be determined by the occurrence of abnormal noise
of exhaust.
By running the engine at idle speed, abnormal vibration and noise can be checked. Immediately
stop the engine when abnormal vibration and noise is detected and make thorough inspection
whether the turbocharger shaft wheel has any damages as well as checking the condition of
connections between pipes.
In case where the noise of engine is louder than usual, there is possibility of dampness in the areas
related with air cleaner and engine or engine block and turbocharger. And it could affect the smooth
supply of engine oil and discharge.
Check for damp condition in exhaust gas when there is sign of thermal discoloration or discharge of
carbon in connecting area of the duct.
When the engine rotates or in case where there is change in noise level, check for clogging of air
cleaner or air cleaner duct or if there is any significant amount of dust in the compressor housing.
During the inspection of center housing, inspect inside of the housing by removing the oil drain pipe
to check for sludge generation and its attachment condition at shaft area or turbine side.
Inspect or replace the air cleaner when the compressor wheel is damaged by inflow of foreign
materials.
Inspect both side of the turbocharger wheel after removing inlet and outlet pipe of the turbocharger. 1.
