Here is what i know.
-340k miles
-The dash flashed code 2754
-I read about trouble shooting this code and it appears it can be a number of things. Charge air cooler and piping leaks. Turbo failure.
- pulled the intake boot from the turbo and can see some contact is being made between the turbine and the housing.
- we are in spearfish south dakota


Here is my question: Does it seem reasonable to think i could get to souix falls about 360 miles to the cummins dealer? Or recommend another shop?

Posting from my phone in a hotel room. Hopefully the pictures work.

from the turbo photo,.. i would say "DO NOT DRIVE IT ANY MORE!@ -- IN FACT -- DO NOT EVEN CRANK THE ENGINE AGAIN!!!!!!!"
until the turbo has been replaced.

-- The impeller shaft or bearing is bad. - It would only take a tiny bit more damage and that thing could throw pressurized oil into the charge air cooler, and into the engine,.. it going into runaway and destroying the engine. It is not worth the risk of even cranking it up at this point. - If you don't have a way to replace the turbo on the side of the road where your at,.. HAVE IT TOWED! - Risk of cranking it or even driving it 10 feet is not worth loosing a $36,000 engine!.
