Can a Turbocharger Oil Leak Be Repaired?
1 Answers
If the turbocharger has a severe oil leak, it can only be replaced and cannot be repaired. Here is some relevant information: 1. The turbocharger is a component unique to turbocharged engines and is a very important part of such engines. 2. The turbocharger consists of two parts: one is the intake turbine, and the other is the exhaust turbine. The intake turbine and exhaust turbine are connected coaxially. The exhaust turbine is connected to the exhaust manifold. When the engine reaches a certain speed, the exhaust has enough energy to drive the exhaust turbine to rotate. Once the exhaust turbine starts rotating, the intake turbine also begins to rotate, allowing the intake turbine to compress air and blow it into the engine cylinders. The shaft between the exhaust turbine and intake turbine is immersed in engine oil, which lubricates and cools the shaft.
