Vehicle Damage Warnings

DURING ENGINE START
^ After engine has started, allow engine to operate at idle speed for several minutes.
^ If engine has not been started for a long period of time (several days), operate engine at idle speed until engine oil has circulated throughout engine assembly.
^ When the turbocharger has been replaced with a new module, remove oil feed hose, then pour clean engine oil directly into the turbocharger oil port.

DURING ENGINE OPERATION
^ Check oil pressure gauge and confirm that normal oil pressure is available.
^ If a rapping or rumbling noise is emitted by rotating components of the turbocharger, stop engine and completely check turbocharger assembly.

DURING ENGINE SHUT DOWN
^ Allow engine to operate at idle speed for several minutes before stopping the engine. If the engine was operating under a heavy load, stopping the engine abruptly could overheat and damage the turbocharger bearings.
