If you own a Citroen Nemo from the years 2008 to 2017, you might be aware that turbo faults are a relatively common issue for this model. Having spent over a decade in the automotive industry specializing in repairs and maintenance, I’ve gained substantial experience in diagnosing and resolving turbo issues, particularly in models like the Citroen Nemo.
Recognizing the symptoms early can save you from more severe damage down the line. The typical signs of a turbo fault in the Citroen Nemo include a noticeable decrease in engine power, excessive exhaust smoke, and a distinct siren-like noise coming from the turbo. In more severe cases, you may also notice an increase in engine oil consumption or even see oil leaking into the exhaust system.
The root causes of turbocharger failures in the Citroen Nemo can vary. Some common issues include oil starvation, oil contamination, and wear and tear of turbocharger components due to aging or poor maintenance practices. A blocked or faulty air filter can also lead to turbocharger damage as it relies heavily on a clean air supply to function efficiently.
Repairing a turbo fault generally involves a thorough inspection to confirm the cause of the failure. If the turbo is beyond repair, replacement is the next step, which includes both the removal of the failed turbo and installation of a new one. It’s crucial to also replace oil feed lines and update the air filter to ensure the longevity of the new turbo. The complete process requires expert skills and precision to avoid further engine complications.
Considering the potential costs and downtime associated with fixing a turbo fault, you might wonder whether it's more sensible to sell your Citroen Nemo and upgrade to a newer model. Selling to Vandervan can be particularly advantageous given the straightforward process they offer. From getting a free online valuation in just 30 seconds, to arranging next-day collection from anywhere in the UK, the hassle-free service ensures you have cash in hand promptly and can start looking for a new vehicle immediately.
