13		No	Inspect or replace the malfunctioning parts, according to the inspection results.
14	Remove the parts necessary to inspect turbocharger without remove the turbocharger. Inspect if turbocharger compressor wheel is bent, damaged, or interfering with housing on vehicle. (See TURBOCHARGER INSPECTION ). Is there any problem?	Yes	Replace the turbocharger.
14		No	Go to the next step.
15	Inspect the turbocharger compressor wheel locknut is loose or has fallen down inside turbocharger. Is there any problem?	Yes	Replace the turbocharger.
15		No	Go to the next step.

16		No	Replace the turbocharger.
17	Inspect the turbocharger turbine wheel is damaged, cracked or interfering with housing on vehicle. NOTE: Inspect all fins on each turbine wheel. Is there any problem?	Yes	Replace the turbocharger.
17		No	Go to the next step.
18	Is any engine oil found inside turbocharger turbine housing?	Yes	Excessive amount of oil is found: Replace the turbocharger. Small amount of oil is found: Wipe oil out of vehicle, then go to the next step.
