Final Checks
  • Once you have refitted your Turbo and reconnected all hoses and filters you need to check a few things:

  • Check the oil level - this will certainly need topping up. Bear in mind that you will need to replace the oil and filter within 500 miles.

  • Ensure your coolant and all other fluids are topped off to ensure they will not cause any problems in general operation.

  • Run the motor

  • Pay close attention to coolant levels and any warning on the instrument cluster

  • There may still be oil in the exhaust system, this will start to burn as the vehicle warms up.

  • If you notice smoke immediately (from a cold engine) stop the motor immediately and check all your connections. This could be an indication that oil is getting burnt in the turbo.

  • If all looks ok and the car is brought up to temperature, while idling, gently increase the revs up and down over the course of a few minutes - shut down and check for leaks. You are done!
