Turbo Replacement vs. Turbo Reconditioning: Which is the Best Option for Your Vehicle?
How to tell if your turbo is in need of inspection
Your turbo’s main job is to provide additional power to your car’s engine. so it’s no surprise when the loss of power becomes very noticeable, especially with larger cars like SUVs as 4×4 cars.
signs your turbo might be broken
Reduced Engine Power: If your engine is not producing the power that it used to, it could be a sign that the turbocharger is not working correctly.
Loud Whining Noise: Any noise from your car is not a good sign -when the turbocharger is working correctly, you may hear a faint whining sound. However, if the sound becomes louder and more persistent, it could be a sign that the turbocharger is failing.
Blue or White Smoke: If you notice blue or white smoke coming from your exhaust, it could be an indication that the turbocharger is not working correctly. Or it could be related to your spark plugs.
Slow Acceleration: If your vehicle takes longer than usual to accelerate, it could be due to a faulty turbocharger.
Check Engine Light: The check engine light may come on if there is an issue with the turbocharger. It’s essential to get your vehicle diagnosed by a mechanic as soon as possible if the check engine light comes on.
When do you replace a turbo vs recondition a turbo?
The first step in considering turbo replacement or reconditioning is to determine if your turbo can be reconditioned.
It’s important to note that not all turbos can be recovered, as some turbo cores are too damaged beyond repair. This is why you’ll be provided with an estimate for both reconditioning and replacement options.
