Component Test

NOTE: The turbocharger must be pre-oiled before carrying out this check.

NOTE: Turbine and compressor wheels must spin freely when turned by hand. No housing contact is permitted.

Inspect the turbocharger compressor and turbine fins for damage. If the compressor or turbine wheel fins are damaged, replace the turbocharger.
Press and rotate the turbocharger shaft, then repeat from the opposite side. If either the compressor wheel or the turbine wheel contacts the housing, the bearings are bad and a new turbocharger must be installed.
