How to check for play in turbo K03
« on: July 13, 2013, 02:48:11 pm »
Hi Guys,

I have K03 turbo for sale which was removed from my car in good working condition. Does it mean that there is no play in turbo? If there is play in turbo it just stops working or this is first sign its end of life is approaching?
A prospective buyer wants to know if there is play in turbo. How can I check this?

Thanks a mill

Do this have anything to do with the Revo slogan "go play"??   :laugh:

There should be a small amount of up and down movement, but very little in and out movement in a good condition turbo
