Turbocharger — precautions (Peugeot 305)

5. The turbocharger operates at very high speeds and high temperatures. To avoid premature failure of the turbocharger and ensure its safe operation, certain precautions must be taken.

6. Do not operate the turbocharger if any of its parts are open. Foreign objects caught in the wheel blades can cause serious injury.

7. Do not rev the engine immediately after starting it (especially cold). You need to wait a few seconds for the oil to start circulating.

8. After driving at high speed, you should let the engine idle for a few minutes and only then turn it off.

9. The oil and oil filter must be replaced at the required intervals. Use only the oil recommended for your engine. Too infrequent oil changes, as well as the use of low-quality oil, can lead to the formation of carbon deposits on the turbine shaft and its subsequent failure.
