Has anyone ever had a turbo shaft that broke? My 03 F250 turbo shaft was just replaced by the dealer, actually the whole turbo. This is the 4th turbo. Truck has 48000 miles on it. 1st 3 turbo's had sticking unison ring & vanes but this one had a broken shaft. Mechanic said unison ring & vanes were fine.

 

I've seen it happen several times but it's not common.

 

probably wasn't balanced perfectly.
are they going to warranty that for you?

Last turbo was replaced in 2005. Warranty back then was for 1 year. Now Ford warranty for turbo is 2 years so I had to pay. They replaced the turbo & ICP with icp pigtail & connector. Bill came to $2786 which sure does hurt.

 

Need to drive your truck more or you'll continue eating turbos.
