2016 LS XR3135HC Issue Fluid in Turbo

[scodemike]

So in using my tractor recently to move dirt, it would stop running when you tried to do anything that was a load. Going uphill, scooping dirt or whatever.

I took it to Randy at Penrose tractor to diagnosis/repair this week. I just talked with them and they found out the EGR Cannister and Turbo were full of fluids, not sure how that happens. They are ordering a new egr cannister and turbo, glad it is still under warranty.

Anyone else had this problem and know why it happens?

Was the crankcase low on oil? Possible turbo oil seal failure from cold starting with 10w30 or heavier oil?

 

[scodemike]

No oil level right on the mark. I'm using 0-40 Syn

 

[RustyA]

Other than crankcase oil or antifreeze how could fluid enter the turbo or egr system?

 

[scodemike]

You are correct, the oil level was fine when I started, didn't think to check after the problem occurred.

I've heard of EGR valve and cooler, but what is an EGR canister?

If you had a turbo failure you may have them check the DPF as well.

Oil mist can also get into a turbo from the crankcase vent. It's tied in just in front of the turbo intake. Creates a mess.
