Browner Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Ok guys recently I had been running a TD06 turbo on my Glanza and all was fine before I parked it up. Now after getting it driving again there is play between the compressor housing where it meets the exhaust housing and is leaking boost. The car will not boost whatsoever.Did anyone ever have this problem before?Browner Quote
RobSR Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Circlip in the middle will have come loose..usually the cause. Quote
ryan lang Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 theres supposed to be a rubber o-ring around it aswell this happened to mine just before a dyno run, couldnt get it to boost past 0.5 Quote
Liam_D Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Being in my line of work I see this a lot, it happens more than you would think. Circlip or clamp around the bearing housing has come loose. Quote

Clamp was the word i should of used haha. Ive seen quite a few turbos like this also and i don't even work with them! Quote
Idrees Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Yep, happened to me before too. I only noticed as I was fitting a new air filter relocation kit then felt the inlet side move freely! Quote
Browner Posted March 11, 2014 Author Posted March 11, 2014 I haven't stripped it all off yet. I'm going to take off the manifold and power steering pump etc and paint them so will inspect the turbo then. It's hard to see on the car. Hopefully the fins aren't damaged Quote
