1 Answers
Nowadays, the lifespan of a turbocharger can last up to around 250,000 kilometers. Below is more information about turbochargers: 1. The lifespan of both the turbocharger and the engine is greatly influenced by maintenance, especially for the turbocharger. 2. Turbochargers have become common in many types of vehicles, compensating for some inherent shortcomings of naturally aspirated engines and allowing the engine to increase output power by over 30% without changing displacement. 3. Under normal usage, the lifespan of a turbocharger is primarily determined by the wear of the thrust bearing, which typically lasts around 8,000 hours. If the oil quality is good, its lifespan can be relatively extended.
