Symptoms of a bad car turbocharger: There are no particularly abnormal signs, but generally, you may feel a lack of power and slow acceleration when pressing the throttle. Turbo failure is mainly caused by the burning out of the turbo shaft, so it is recommended to promptly visit a 4S dealership for inspection and repair. The turbo shaft is cooled by engine oil, meaning it is connected to the engine's lubrication system. If not repaired in time, it can affect the engine's lubrication system. The recommended replacement interval for a turbocharger is around 100,000 to 150,000 kilometers. Only the turbocharger needs to be replaced, while other parts can be maintained normally. The exact replacement time depends entirely on the owner's usage. As long as proper maintenance is carried out, high-quality engine oil is used, and cooling procedures after parking are followed, the turbocharger generally won't fail.
