New Peugeot 308 1.2 THP Turbo – Ref. 887157-5001S

Why does the turbo on the Peugeot 308 PureTech wear out prematurely?

On the 1199 cm³ petrol engines fitted to the Peugeot 308 in PureTech and THP 110/130 form, the turbocharger is under constant demand to deliver torque from low revs. Insufficient lubrication, non-compliant or overdue engine oil changes, and a clogged air filter are the most common causes of accelerated wear to the turbo bearings and shaft. Repeated short cold trips without the engine reaching proper operating temperature also promote carbon build-up and encourage oil leaks on the exhaust or intake side.

Fitting advice for PureTech engines on the 308

Before fitting this new turbo, it is essential to check the oil circuit (feed and return hoses), the condition of the intercooler and intake hoses, and the cleanliness of the air filter, to prevent any contamination of the new turbocharger. Priming the turbo with oil before the first start-up ensures immediate lubrication of the bearings and prevents any dry running on start-up.

• Check the oil return hose for blockages or leaks
• Inspect the intercooler and air intake pipes
• Follow the recommended oil quality and change intervals for the PureTech engine
• Prime the turbo with oil before restarting the engine
