After so many interactions with clients, re-occurring themes start to emerge. These themes centre around turbocharger problems specific to makes, models and manufacture year.
Below is a list of pages we have created to help answer some of the most common, re-occurring issues that we see on a regular basis.
Most pages also provide a solution to the issue. Some issues require little to fix or prevent occurring in the first place.
Others require additions of peripheral systems to enhance the standard operating environment. Some unfortunately, cannot be fixed and required turbocharger replacement.
