How to extend turbocharger life?

 

At present, the turbocharger technology is relatively mature, and the life of the turbocharger is also greatly extended. Under normal working conditions, the vehicle can travel 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers, and consumers do not need to worry about the turbocharger.

 

In the process of use, in order to prolong the life of the turbocharger, three points should be done.

 

First, due to the high temperature of the turbocharger during use and its special structure, there are special requirements for oil selection. The oil used in the maintenance of ordinary gasoline engine models cannot meet the requirements of turbocharged models. Therefore, in the maintenance process, you must use the special oil for turbocharged vehicles, and don't be greedy for petty cheap.

 

Second, after the engine is started, especially in winter, it should be allowed to idle for a period of time, so that the lubricating oil can fully lubricate the bearings before the supercharger rotor runs at high speed. Do not slam the throttle after just starting to prevent damage to the supercharger oil seal. After the engine is under heavy load and running for a long time, it should run at idle speed for 3 to 5 minutes before turning off the flame, and let the speed of the turbocharger rotor drop before turning off the flame. In particular, it is necessary to prevent the engine from suddenly turning off after slamming on the accelerator for a few times.

  

Third, because the turbo system of the "T" car does not work much when driving on urban roads in many cases, long-term traffic jams may cause carbon deposits. Excessive carbon deposition will not only affect the operation of the engine, but also easily harm the turbocharging system. It is recommended that car owners remove carbon deposits from the vehicle during maintenance during the period of 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers.
