KJ-0162-0

For the turbocharger with a variable nozzle, which compresses intake air into the engine, shape of the intake turbine blades is improper. Because of this, continuous use of the turbocharger at the near maximum rpm may cause damage on the turbine blades, resulting in abnormal noises and white smoke. At worst, engine output decreases.
