Brand new turbo shaft play
Hey I have a brand new turbo precision 3231e I bought from a vendor on here. The turbo has a little bit of side to side but not enough to contact the housing. I've been reading a lot of shaft play threads and have gotten mixed answers whether this is normal or not. I can move it enough that I can see it visibly move.
This is rough estimate since I don't have a precise measuring tool, but if the clearance between the fins and the housing is about 1mm, than I'd say the side to side I got is about .5mm around there. Is this normal for a new turbo?
heres a vid of the play:

Re: Brand new turbo shaft play
that means the turbo doesnt have any abnormal shaft play...
stop questioning and install the damn thing already.... or if you're that worried sell it and go back to the appearance forum....
