In the first two images, you can see corrosion damage to the seal area and inlet of the compressor cover. This type of damage is extremely common with Porsche units as, with the turbos sited so low down on the vehicle, they catch all the road debris that gets flung up from the back wheels. Over time, this causes the surfaces of the compressor cover to corrode.
When it comes to turbo damage, oil has a lot to answer for, with oil pressure, delay and contamination all common culprits.
Our experienced teams have been helping customers from across the UK with their turbocharger repairs since 1974.
