Turbocharger increases the power of the engine piston. Due to the turbocharger, the amount of air-fuel mixture entering the engine increases. Turbocharger is widely used in diesel engines, although its use in gasoline engines lets to achieve higher capacity. Exhaust flow drives the turbine, the turbine drives the turbocharger. So, we speak about the turbocharger operating on exhaust.

Turbochargers increase the capacity. But today this is no more an important reason to use this part. The main goal is to reduce fuel consumption and emissions and to preserve the capacity. This is one of the reasons of using turbocharger in vehicles with gasoline engines. Faulty turbocharger results in capacity reduction. Also this can increase fuel consumption. Sometimes there is only a temporary capacity reduction. In this case it is necessary to diagnose the vehicle in the service centre.

It is not easy to diagnose a faulty turbocharger. In modern cars trouble-shooting is performed with the help of special instruments. Minor failures can be easily repaired. A complete turbocharger replacement is required in case of a serious damage. If there is a failure, it is necessary to drive to the service centre.
