My 2.3 Failed Last Night Garret Seized Solid Spins fine when it's cold Put any heat near it Locks solid Impeller Shaft has distorted Allowing the The Compressor Side To Chaff the crap out of the Compressor Housing.. Nightmare All done now Nice New unit RB. Enjoy
boom often wear or overboosting can cause cavitation of the shaft and rapid failure. I have an Audi in the workshop with boost issues and found the Turbine and turbo shaft sitting in the exhaust middle section lol
@@dieseltuningincboosttechno4684 It was it's age Never been Right since it was Parked for six months last year it had lost power .Lucky for me Nothing has Gone Through ill run it for 1k then dump the oil again annoying thing is the oil is finished by 10k so always changed at that point it made 143 k So it did well. They do not Make them to last and Lack of Zinc in the oil and other goodness Just designed to fail . stay Safe my friend.
Hey man great video, can you help me? im actually going to use the same turbo on a mk2 superb 2.0cr , my question is how to transfer the actuator do i have to cut the arm? And my greatest concern is how to set the stop screw? How many mm?
so you can obtain short VNT arm kits from the internet but they do require tig welding in place if that is what you mean. So just so I am clear what Turbo are you fitting and to what engine ?
@@dieseltuningincboosttechno4684 sorry for the late reply it's 2.0tdi cjaa . I might have used a wrong term I was actually looking for the minimum air flow calibration after the vacuum conversion. Can we do it manually or I need to send it to the flow bench. One more thing is confusing if we calibrate the minimum flow, we adjust it to the factory turbo flow rate or the new turbos stock flow rate?
@user-yy9xd9fq8b obviously it will be more better on a flow bench but 90% if the time if you put 1.5mm on the stop screw the rest of the vnt adjustment can be done via the map
My insignia CDTi 2011 estate was driving fine, now, it doesn’t get any power when driving - if I’m going up hill on the motorway, my speed drops to 39mph and I have to drop gears and get high revs to keep it from going any lower. Obviously I know this is bad 😢 recently it seemed to regain about 75% of its power but then even more recently lost it again… No lights up on the dashboard, only the ‘service soon’ message showing up. Do you think it’s the turbo based on this information?
Very difficult to say without doing diagnostic work. I would recommend taking it to the nearest vauxhall specialist. Guessing will be more expensive than testing, locating the fault and doing the repair.
By the VNT arm I can see a set screw? 0:46 on the turbo itself, a black bolt. When the car starts I assume the VNT arm drops down to rest on that screw? Can you change the amount of movement the arm has with this, and would that affect how the turbo boosts?
you can change the stop screw setting and it will change how the turbo boosts but it is something that should only be done with a VNT flow machine and skill/knowledge. To adjust it manually could cause overboost that will destroy the turbo why do you want to adjust it?
@@dieseltuningincboosttechno4684 I still get occasional very rare over boost, I think my VNT might be clogged but want to eliminate anything else out first. Thanks, most likely wont touch that then.
Hi mate, thanks for your help video. I got insignia 1.6 cdti 2016, when I bought it came with no power, DPF full, and error code P0299 and P0234. I replaced Map, Maf, O2 sensor, delete dpf and egr from ecu, but I still have no power at all.. Update i removed the intake manifold out cleaned it up lot of dust come from inside manifold, I don't have air leak the turbocharger apparently work work well. But I don't removed it yet for check. Did you have any idea about my big issue? Thanks
Sorry for the late reply we don t really get involved in online diagnostics. The best way is to find a trustworthy vauxhall specialist and get some data logging done to pin point the problem and solve it first time, guessing can get expensive....
Hi I've a 2011 Vauxhall insignia 125 thousand miles on it. The turbo went on it last week. When I pulled over and took the key it kept on revving. I was talking to 2 mechanics 1 said if you up a new turbo in it. It should be fine. And the other 1 said if I do put a new turbo in it the engine will go shortly. Don't know who to believe now. Is it worth putting money in to it? Any advice would Be welcome thanks a million
So like this, my insignia is 96kw and I mapped it to 185 / 190hp, for me this smaller turbine is "cylindrical", it's not like the insignia 118kw, so to speak, 2 big circles. I wonder if I would achieve anything to install that bigger turbo of 118kw ... thank you very much

I am getting code p2598 on my 1.6 cdti 2017. This code is vane position sensor circuit too low? Could a faulty boost valve cause that code?

125 thousand for a diesel is barely run in, how long did it rev for?
@@dieseltuningincboosttechno4684 less than a minute
Hi, I wonder if you know if this turbo is stronger than the turbo from the 96kw insignia. It's different for me, it's kind of oblong.
yes this is different from the 96kw version but it will still fit
It is physically bigger and I believe it is stronger than 118kw than this one of 96kw ... or am I wrong
@@AzurBakal Yes it is bigger and stronger than both the 96kw and 118kw versions
