So, turbo got opened up... - dhirocz - 03-23-2018
Got the autopsy report on this one. 685 k miles, is what appears to be the factory HE561VE from my 871.
I noticed NOTHING out of the ordinary, other than loss of proper VG function. I deadheaded this thing home from Baltimore to Savannah as nice as I could and swapped on my spare ASAP.
Seeing how the ring is broken and the turbine is a little chewed up makes me feel pretty lucky I used good judgement and changed it. It even spun over fine...but the ring is clearly shot and it wouldn't have taken much more at all.
