    This has to be one of the most straightforward explanations of a VVT on the internet. Really good description of how it works. DIY mechanics shouldn't be fearful of tackiing this job. Thanks for sharing

      This has nothing to do with variable valve timing though...

    Can't thank you enough. I hv been suffering with frequent CEL n limp mode for the last 3 months. No service centre nor "expert" mechanics could diagnose the cause (even with official scanning). Their conclusion was the ECU is kaput n i ought to buy a new one.
    After sumbling on to ur video today i opened and cleaned the turbo myself and the issue is fixed.
    THANK YOU.

    Important to keep in mind: the turbo spins at over 120 thousand rpm, which is 2000 revs per second. A tiniest scratch, nick or bend on the turbine or compressor wheel will throw it out of balance, meaning reduced rpm of the turbo, and damaged turbo bearing.

    By far, the best video explanation I've seen of how these turbos work and why they have issues. I was hoping the notchiness I felt in the actuator moving was from the actuator rod, unfortunately it's coming from the actuator lever on the turbo/vanes. After watching this, I'm way more confident cleaning the turbo. Thanks!

    A very good overview of VNT type turbo and potential fault points. Although Ive worked on a lot of cars over the last few decades this video was a good refresher on the VNT operation.

    "LIMP MODE" I subscribed instantly after you explained that, I've been having the issue you describe on my Open/Vauxhall Signum 3.0 V6 CDTI 03, I'm a newbie to turbos and all the mechanics around here say don't touch it and buy a new one but I want to learn more about the unit and how to fix it myself, brilliant video, thank you

    • @justincarr8604
      @justincarr8604 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Personally, I would find a replacement out of a salvage yard. Then take that one apart and study it. Clean it and buy a rebuild kit. Then when you take your old one off you already know what you need to do. Good luck on that beauty!

  • @chrissalter989

    Perfect explanation and has given me the total insight as to why mine overboosts as with vacuum connected the turbo arm moves less than if I move it manually, and I can feel it dragging inside...now I understand why....brilliant explanation thanks!

  • @adrianrabone4842
    @adrianrabone4842 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Brilliant video. Answered my question where all other forums failed, and that is "there is no wastegate in these type of turbos". I have been searching for info on the Vito 111 cdi wastegate all week after reading on the Mercedes forum that this is the the reason my Vito keeps going into limp mode. The sticky actuator is for the variable vanes not the waste gate. I wish ill informed people would keep their mouths firmly shut !!

  • @gabitrandafir8396
    @gabitrandafir8396 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I used Winns turbo cleaner spray. Sprayed a whole can in the turbo while the engine was on idling. Gave it 10 min took it for a spin and i can't believe it did the job. Easy cheap fix. And no service gave me this cheap option it was a last resort thing to see if it worked. They wanted me to recondition the turbo...car works fine now.

    • @mevio4665
      @mevio4665 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      On which side of the turbo have you sprayed? Intake or exhaust? Did you leave it for 10 minutes at idle with the spray in? Thanks.

    Super told.
    For the first time i had understand how it's work.
    Thank you.
    I have a issue with a overboost.
    I had mounted a gauge vacuum on the line to vaccum acuator.
    When i press the clutch i have a little to 90% vacuum and after small pitch the vacuum drop to 20 or 10.
    After 100km/h, i had limp mode with error overboost.
    It's seems that the vane are not clossing.
    The actuator moves ok, but as i understand from you, i can have that gap, that keeps the vanes open a little...
    Hmmm, i have to dismantle...
    In the summer i think...
    Thanks again...

    Excellent video. My Insignia has intermittent power loss and a P003A fault code. Basically, the car doesn't know where the vane position is and goes into fault, dumping the boost. Going to use Revive Turbo cleaner and see if it works out.

    The Transit is the first Turbo I've owned with a VNT. I bought a new one and had it replaced, never knowing really what it did. The magic words here were 'a VNT system doesn't have a BOV" or something to that effect.

    Must admit that I have removed the exhaust flange and filled the housing with "Mr Muscle" oven cleaning foam. Left it for a couple of hours then cleaned out with brake cleaner and an air line. Next day, refitted flange and road test. Loads of black from exhaust but it does clear.

    At 13:09 the "control ring " is in upside down. The notch that the control lever sits in on the control ring sits between two holes. One is a "slot" and the other is a "round hole". The round hole should be on the left. I'm certain this will not allow correct amount of travel.

Iys removing ut that I'd not want to do as it's at the rear tucked away . A nightmare inc the oil feed
