1 year agoIt’s not just the turbo that fails (they do) it’s all ancillary parts that go with it. It’s also the extra stress on the engine, which aren’t over built like they used to be. It’s the tighter packaging making working on other stuff a pain in the dick.
Is there a turbo engine, that’s known for its minimal maintenance and longevity?
Just yesterday I spoke to my mechanic during my inspection and asked which brand he suggested to avoid and without thought replied GM.
He also had a Ram truck in the shop, a o ring in an injector went. The truck was under 100k, yes with the diesel.
Everyone who is down voting similar sentiments as mine on the risk of reliability going to turbo I bet you doesn’t actually work on their cars and probably a good chunk just lease. Making the problem of reliability/maintenance irrelevant.
Will see in a few years.
