SUBJECT
Turbocharger Failure: Oil Supply Line Blockage
MODEL
All
SITUATION
The customer complains of loss of performance and turbocharger noise.
CAUSE
The turbocharger oil supply may be restricted, causing oil starvation and resulting in the seizing of the turbocharger assembly.
PROCEDURE
Upon replacement of the turbocharger assembly, always remove and inspect the oil supply lines for blockage or restriction. Ensure that the lines are
not collapsed or kinked. Replace the lines if a blockage or restriction is detected. Inspection of the oil supply lines will avoid repeated failure of the
turbocharger assembly.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
This service information bulletin is intended to provide technical diagnostic and/or repair information only.
If a warranty claim results from the above repairs, it should be submitted following the regular warranty claim procedures..

The antenna signal is missing for the following possible reasons:
1. The vehicle is in an area without connection to the SIRIUS/XM satellite.
^ Inside a building (parking garage, workshop, ...)
^ In tunnels
^ In a dense urban area surrounded by high-rise buildings
^ Under trees
^ In a valley or mountainous area
2. Defective SDARS antenna
3. Defective SDARS antenna cable
4. Defective connector on:
^ The SDARS antenna
^ The SDARS receiver
5. Internal fault in the SDARS receiver
[NEW] CORRECTION
Try to reproduce the complaint with the customer when possible. If it can be reproduced, follow the procedure below.
[NEW] PROCEDURE
Cause #1
A. Ask the customer where (location) and how often it is happening (can it be reproduced all the time?)
^ Try a similar vehicle for verification at the same location and time.
If it acts the same way, then the functionality is normal and no further steps have to be taken.
^ For information on SIRIUS/XM satellite radio functionality, please refer to Service Information B65 02 05.
Causes #2 through #5
B. If it is acting differently, follow these steps:
^ Check if the installed SDARS roof antenna (including the SDARS antenna cable) is defective by connecting an aftermarket SIRIUS antenna and
retest.
^ Check the connectors on the SDARS antenna (shark fin) and on the SDARS receiver.
^ If there is no problem found on the SDARS antenna including the SDARS antenna cable and connectors perform step C.
C. Perform diagnosis using ISTA (Integrated Service Technical Application), and troubleshoot any faults related to the SIRIUS/XM satellite radio
system.
