Quick check of the turbocharger (TC)

Switching off the engine to listen to the turbocharger (TC) with the engine off




Normally the moving parts in the turbocharger (TC) stop slightly after the engine.

If this does not happen:
Remove the air intake hose from the compressor housing.
Check whether:
- The turbine is rotating
- The axial and radial play feels normal
- The turbine does not rub against the compressor housing.
