Thread: Turbo damage

  1. 03-10-2012 02:25 PM #1
    Hello everyone,

    recently I have bought an S362 to uses in VW PASSAT 2.1T and uses K&N filter.

    But te turbo smokes and get excessive wear on the shaft after 1500 miles under 20 PSI of pressure. I suspected of small oil drain.

    What can happened on my turbo ?

    Thanks

    Just my two cents. I work at Advance auto parts, and I have heard horror stories about Fram filters. Everything from stopping oil flow from exploding off the block. I would change it.
