No warning at all;
I had just been through Kentucky drive through, motor was thoroughly warmed up, mild day;
It happened with as I was pulling away gently from rest as I waited for traffic between the lanes ;
There was a pop and my turbo was completely destroyed; shafts, I should have taken photos but it was just an oily broken mess...
I guess it was pretty old, I should have just changed it beforehand, as I got oil throughout all the pipes, intercooler, intake;
I’ll take off intake manifold again soon to clean it properly, when I’ve got more time, also oil got onto my alternator causing overcharging, but I cleaned it with brake cleaner and it seems to have fixed it, but I bought a spare just in case it explodes...
