Yes, the coolant can affect the turbo on your engine. The turbocharger relies on both oil and coolant to maintain optimal operating temperatures and prevent overheating. If the coolant system is not functioning properly, it can lead to increased temperatures in the turbo, potentially causing damage or reduced performance. Proper coolant levels and maintenance are essential for the longevity and efficiency of the turbocharger.

Why must turbo-charged engine idle prior to shutdown?

Turbo charged engines must be idled down to allow the turbo to spool down and even out the temperature in the turbo this is done either by using oil cooling or the engine coolant or both in combination.The engine needs to be running to circulate the oil and coolant if you shut the engine down without idling the engine down it can burn the oil or coolant and in many cases both which will cause carbon blockages in the oil feed and coolant feed and hamper lubrication leading to catastrophic turbo failure (fires and explosions)

Can turbo leak oil in coolant?

Yes, a turbocharger can leak oil into the coolant system if there is a failure in the seals or if the turbo itself is damaged. This can occur due to excessive wear or overheating, leading to a breach between the oil and coolant passages. If oil contaminates the coolant, it can cause overheating and potentially damage the engine. It's important to address any signs of such leaks promptly to prevent further engine damage.

Can a cracked turbo on a 1990 eagle talon TSI burn water?

A cracked turbo on a 1990 Eagle Talon TSI can potentially lead to burning coolant rather than water. If the crack allows coolant to enter the exhaust system, it can result in white smoke, which is a sign of burning coolant. However, if the turbo is cracked but not leaking coolant, it won't directly cause water to burn. It's essential to inspect the turbo for any signs of damage and address any leaks to avoid serious engine issues.

No, the oil level can affect the the oil pressure if it is too high or low. The coolant level has no connection with the engine oil pressure.


My 86 Mazda rx7 is blowing white smoke out the tailpipe and looseing coolant what does this mean?
