How do I take care of my turbocharger?

A turbocharger loves clean engine oil and coolant. Having your engine oil changed at the recommended interval will keep your turbocharger working properly. Your engine oil should be changed every 5,000 miles and we always recommend using full synthetic engine oil. This will help to prevent the breakdown of the engine oil due to the higher temperatures.


We also recommend a cooling system fluid service every 36 months. Over time your coolant stops protecting your engine due to electrolysis and corrosion. The corrosion-inhibiting components in your coolant break down and stop protecting your engine from damage. Some engines may need a corrosion and anti-cavitation additive.



Give us a call and let us take care of you.


Happy Adventures,


Heather
