Turbocharger bearing failures can cause large quantities of oil to enter the air intake and exhaust systems. Loss of engine lubricant can result in serious engine damage.Minor leakage of oil into a turbocharger under extended low idle operation should not cause problems as long as a turbocharger bearing failure has not occured.When a turbocharger bearing failure is accompanied by a significant engine performance loss (exhaust smoke or engine rpm up at no load), do not continue engine operation until the turbocharger is renewed.
A visual inspection of the turbocharger or turbochargers can minimize unscheduled downtime. A visual inspection of the turbocharger or turbochargers can also reduce the chance for potential damage to other engine parts. Do not inspect the engine with the engine in operation.Single Turbocharger

Typical example
Ensure that the turbocharger is clean and free from dirt before removing components for inspection.
Remove the pipe from the turbocharger exhaust outlet and remove the air intake pipe (1). Visually inspect the piping for the presence of oil. Clean the interior of the pipes in order to prevent dirt from entering during reassembly.
Check for obvious heat discoloration of the turbocharger. Check for any loose bolts or any missing bolts. Check for damage to the oil supply line and the oil drain line. Check for cracks in the housing of the turbocharger. Ensure that the compressor wheel can rotate freely.
Check for the presence of oil. If oil is leaking from the back side of the compressor wheel, there is a possibility of a failed turbocharger oil seal. The presence of oil may be the result of extended engine operation at low idle. The presence of oil may also be the result of a restriction of the line for the intake air (clogged air filters), which causes the turbocharger to slobber.
Install the air intake pipe and the exhaust outlet pipe to the turbocharger housing. Ensure that all clamps are installed correctly and that all clamps are tightened securely. For more information, refer to Systems Operation, Testing, and Adjusting, "Turbocharger - Inspect". Engine Install with High Pressure and Low Pressure Turbochargers
Illustration 2 g02136113
Typical example
The engine is equipped with a high-pressure turbocharger (1) and a low-pressure turbocharger (3). A regular visual inspection of both turbochargers is recommended. If the turbocharger fails during engine operation, damage to the turbocharger compressor wheel and/or to the engine may occur. Damage to the turbocharger compressor wheel can damage the pistons, the valves, and the cylinder head.Inspecting
The compressor housing for the turbocharger must not be removed from the turbocharger for inspection or removed for the cleaning of the compressor.
Ensure that the turbochargers are clean and free from dirt before removing components for inspection.
Remove the pipe from the high-pressure turbocharger exhaust outlet and remove the air intake pipe to the turbocharger. Visually inspect the piping for the presence of oil. Clean the interior of the pipes in order to prevent dirt from entering during reassembly.
Remove elbow (2) and check for the presence of engine oil.
Check for obvious heat discoloration of the turbocharger. Check for any loose bolts or any missing bolts. Check for damage to the oil supply line and the oil drain line. Check for cracks in the housing of the turbocharger. Ensure that the compressor wheel can rotate freely.
Check for the presence of oil. If oil is leaking from the back side of the compressor wheel, there is a possibility of a failed turbocharger oil seal. The presence of oil may be the result of extended engine operation at low idle. The presence of oil may also be the result of a restriction of the line for the intake air (clogged air filters), which causes the turbocharger to slobber.
Inspect the bore of the housing of the turbine outlet for corrosion.
Install the air intake pipe and the exhaust outlet pipe to the turbocharger housing. Ensure that all clamps are installed correctly and that all clamps are tightened securely. For more information, refer to Systems Operation, Testing, and Adjusting, "Turbocharger - Inspect".
