[QUOTE="mtsblaster, post: 1446758, member: 27873"] I put a Garrett GTP 38R on My 2002 F350 7.3 less than a year ago. Last week while pulling a trailer the turbo started squeeling very high pitch. Like metal to metal screech. Pulled the intake off and sure enough. I have plenty of shaft play allowing the compressor wheel to touch the housing. There are no expenses spared when maintaining our trucks, as they are how we make a living. This truck has never seen more than 4,500 miles between oil changes. I called advanced diesel, where I ordered the turbo, and they told me I would have to contact Garrett directly for Warranty issues. I found out by talking to other dealers this is not true. Turbo has to go back to the dealer purchased from and they start the warranty claim. So obviously not going to get any help from advanced diesel. I looked back through emails only to find I am 5 days outside the year warranty by purchase date. Did I just get a Fluke Turbo here? After reading I found garrett quality has taken a plummet after moving all operations to Mexico and China. So is there a better bolt on american made option for the 7.3? Is my only option to change pedestal so i can bolt up h2e? I don't really care to spend $1,500 per year on turbos. We have 4 7.3L trucks and Im sure the factory turbos on the other 3 will not last forever either. I need some turbo advice! Thanks [/QUOTE]
