Any idea what a shop that does turbo diagnostics would be using as they'd need to test any and every vehicle? I'm wondering whether there is something hardware related that has ever so slightly failed, especially with the long periods it was sat stationary during covid, something must have...
Turbocharger The turbocharger allows for a smaller engine for better fuel economy and kiks in for extra power when needed (e.g., when passing or merging). Using the energy of exhaust gases, the turbocharger pumps more air into the engine intake under pressure. ...
I think engine designers purposely do not switch on turbo at low RPMs as, boost, however small may be, will be too dangerous for the average driver on the road. Makes sense? Unfortunately, no, it does not make sense. Why not do some googling and acquire some valid information?
Another potential issue to keep an eye out for is a rattling noise from the turbo's wastegate, which may indicate that it is wearing out and in need of replacement. The wastegate arm or actuator can become worn over time due to the heavy workload it endures. If you detect a rattle, ...
releasing the air, or it can be locked open via an oil reservoir. Then the oil is released through a small hole, damping the valve closure and ensuring the valve doesn't hit its seat damagingly hard. There's also an airway on the other side of the actuator piston that can hasten ...
Infiniti's variable-compression-ratio engine, or VC-T ("T" for "turbo"), is the result of some 300 patents and two decades of development, realizing an idea that optimizes both performance and efficiency. The brilliance is hidden deep in the engine. An actuator pivots the extra linkages ...
Note: An OBD II drive cycle is not just turning the ignition key on and off or starting the engine. A drive cycle requires starting a cold engine and running it until it reaches normal operating temperature. The next drive cycle does not begin until the engine has been shut off, allowed...
Small stage is good for coding so you have lots of space to work with and large stage is the normal mode.In the top middle is the toolbar. Holding down shift while using any of these keeps them active instead of just going back to the cursor tool when you click and it does its ...
I have done some info on tools and parts required (UK style) and the pictures include everything I thought maybe teh diagrams etc didn't explain that well eg how do you fit the tensioner locking tool, what does it lock against, what way up does it go? You kind of don't know this...
