    This is literally the only video you will need to watch if your turbo has ANY end float, an excellent explanation 👍

    Straight to the point and very well explained! Seeing the turbo cutaway like that was very helpful in understand how lubrication and bearing work. I always appreciate these educational videos that don't have a bunch of shouting, music and annoying messing around. Thank you!

    Excellent explanation and illustration. I thought there was shaft play at first, but no in/out and I was gonna have to buy a turbo. It seems perfectly normal after learning more about what's normal/failed Thanks

    Thank you for this video!!!!!! My turbo is leaking from hot side. Just fixed my oil drain fitting in the oil and and if it still leaks I’ll do a rebuild. But I did buy a new center cartridge just in case.

    Great video, I bought a S261sx-e, lasted a month. Im running 600bhp at 2.7bar. Just upgraded the thrust from a 270 to a 360°. See how it goes. If it goes again. It means im pushing the turbo too fast. Will have to get a bigger turbo as i can't live without high boost.

    question, my turbo is an original, has done 150,000 miles, 40k miles tuned, i purchased the car on 139k, it felt like it had axial play when i checked it after buying it, still has the play, but im not burning any oil that i can see, and there is no damage to the compressor wheel, i have done 10k miles myself, no siren noises etc, do you think it will die at some point.

  • @jackdaniel4977
    @jackdaniel4977 Před 2 lety

    so why the thrust bearing erode? Oil lubricantion not enough?

    • @MDCDiesel
      @MDCDiesel  Před 2 lety +1

      Most thrust bearings failures occur when the shaft speed exceeds its limits. Meaning the shaft spins so fast that the oil is ejected from the bearing faster than the oil is replaced.

      @@MDCDiesel what i found with my turbo,the oil feed inlet restriction adapter hole size 1mm..maybe not suitable for journal bearing

    Hi, I have a reconditioned one, the problem is the shaft, it touches the housing when moved side ways. only on one side, the other side does not move up to the wall/housing. Without moving sideways it does working/spins freely. No in/out play at all.
