Technicians are now working on vehicles fitted with a turbocharger on a daily basis, so to help them with this responsibility, Nissens Automotive says it has made available a comprehensive technical resource they can draw from, but also highlights their lubrication, as one of the key factors that will determine the lifespan of a turbo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cParticularly because of the ultra-high speeds at which they spin and the intense heat they have to operate under, the correct lubrication of a turbo is critical,\u201d says Nissens Automotive\u2019s marketing manager, Jan Zieleskiewicz.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the lubrication is unimpaired, they are remarkably robust components that remain extremely reliable. However, if impaired, the results can be catastrophic and lubrication issues are among the most common reasons for their failure.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo assist technicians to diagnose problems and correctly rectify faults, we have developed several online resources, including a section headed Lubrication Starvation, Friction and Seizure (https:\/\/support.nissens.com\/material\/premature-turbocharger-failures<\/a>), which highlights the most common reasons for premature turbo failure, how to avoid them and how any underlying problems can be solved.”<\/p>\n

Zieleskiewicz adds: \u201cOne of the most common causes of lubrication problems is crankcase ventilation, although ironically, this is an issue that is often disregarded, which is why we\u2019ve developed a specific section (https:\/\/support.nissens.com\/material\/engine-crankcase-ventilatio<\/a>n) to address the subject.<\/p>\n

\u201cNaturally, when failure does occur and the turbo needs to be replaced, Nissens Automotive is able to satisfy the needs of independent workshops with a range that has been designed and manufactured to match the specifications of the original components to replicate the engine performance, fuel economy, emissions standards and durability stipulated by the VMs.<\/p>\n

\u201cTurbo failures are often accompanied with, or caused by, problems with related components, which is why the Nissens Automotive programme also includes additional products such as turbo intercoolers, and oil feed pipes, which, as a best practice procedure, we recommend are replaced at the same time as the turbo.”<\/p>\n

Zieleskiewicz concludes: \u201cWhen it comes to fitting a replacement turbo, the correct installation procedure is critical and here again Nissens provides technicians with the necessary guidance (https:\/\/support.nissens.com\/material\/self-learning-course-turbocharger-component-installation<\/a>) to enable them to fit it right, first time.<\/p>\n
