Note:It is normal to have some oil present in the turbocharger. This will not affect engine performance.

 

Possible causes: 

The primary cause for oil leakage into the compressor housing is a pressure change that is equal or negative over the seal rings. This condition occurs when the pressure behind the compressor wheel is lower or equal to the pressure in the bearing system of the turbocharger where oil is present. This creates a condition where oil can be sucked or drawn from the bearing system into the compressor housing. This usually exists when boost pressure is, at a minimum, at or close to an idle condition.

 

Most likely causes of oil pulled into the compressor stage of the turbocharger: 

  • Blocked or inadequate oil drainage from the turbocharger back to the engine crankcase.
  • Air inlet restriction caused by dirty or restricted conditions; ice, snow or water intrusion. These obstructions, even if temporary, can lead to an unfavorable restriction between air cleaner and compressor housing. This can affect the pressure across the compressor seal rings leading to oil being drawn into the compressor housing.
  • Boost pressure leakage in the induction system (physical damage or low torque on Charge Air Cooler (CAC) boot, CAC clamp and CAC). An oil leak is also an air leak when the engine is running (i.e. oil leak around CAC boot or clamp is a potential air leak and needs to be addressed).
  • Higher than normal crankcase pressure from combustion pressure blow-by.
  • Restricted or nonfunctional crankcase breather spinner.

Note : To clean the air system, use a clean rag to wipe the turbocharger elbow pipe between the turbocharger to the charge air cooler and the inlet in the charge air cooler.

 

Verification procedure: Drive the vehicle for 30 minutes and recheck for oil pullover.

Check as follows:

NOTICE

The turbocharger is a non-serviceable part and should not be disassembled.

 

1.Turn the ignition OFF.

 

2.Inspect the turbocharger for physical damage. Is the turbocharger damaged?

2a Yes; determine what caused the damage and repair that issue. Then replace the turbocharger.

2b No; Go to step 3.

 

3.Connect DiagnosticLink.

4.Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).

 

5.Check for fault codes. Are there any turbocharger/air flow related fault codes present?

 

5a Yes; diagnose the other fault codes first. Once repairs are complete, clean the oil out of the air system and release the vehicle.

5b No; Go to step 6.

 

6.Inspect the hood cowl for any obstructions such as leaves, dirt, snow, ice, water etc. Are there any obstructions present?

6a Yes; clear the obstructions, clean the oil out of the air system and release the vehicle.

6b No; Go to step 7.

 

7.Inspect the air filter for restrictions. Refer to section
