Guia de pré-lubrificação
Turbochargers are precision-engineered rotating components built with tight tolerances and extreme speed capabilities—reaching over 100,000 RPMs. The turbine shaft relies on a pressurized engine oil film for centering and lubrication: incorrect pre-lubrication before engine startup will result in catastrophic turbo failure. Bearings or turbine shafts that show signs of scorching, scoring, seizure, grooving, or melting will immediately void all warranties. Follow these critical oiling steps to prevent dry starts and protect your turbo:
Prior to turbo installation, replace the engine oil, oil filter(s), and air filter(s) with new, OEM-equivalent parts. Note that some units feature an internal micro-screen filter within the oil supply fitting—this component must also be replaced.
⚠️ Important Check: Inspect all air and exhaust inlets/outlets for obstructions, damage, or debris before proceeding.
Before starting the engine:
After installation, allow the engine to idle at low RPM for 3–5 minutes to establish a stable oil film.
