Signs of a worn turbo on the Skoda Octavia 2.0 TDI 170 ch

Advice before and after fitting on the Octavia 2.0 TDI

On this engine, premature turbo failure is most commonly caused by a lubrication fault linked to unsuitable oil quality or missed oil changes, a clogged air filter, or a leak at the intercooler or intake hoses. Before installation, it is essential to check the oil circuit, the condition of the hoses, and the cleanliness of the air intake. Pre-lubricating the turbo with oil before the first start-up ensures immediate lubrication of the bearings and helps extend the life of the part.

• Check the reference on the old turbo before ordering
• Inspect the oil circuit and hoses
• Clean or replace the air filter
• Pre-lubricate the turbo with oil before start-up
• Drive gently after fitting
