Hi I did say usually and that is from my experience of what I have seen. So many tractors have bad operators driving the cr@p out of them, and not following good operating practices these days it can cause failure, I'm not implying that's what this guy did.
Some equipment does'n't have a gauge on just a light. Turbo bearings are very sensitive to oil pressure at the speeds they run at. The light might not pick up the pressure drop that accurately that can cause failure, this could or couldn't be an issue here.
If you got a bad turbo you where unlucky and it could of caused your problem. I personally don't trust these cheap china turbo's and the re builds from some places either these days I don't know what your situation was here. I'm not saying this is what you did either, I have seen guys that should Know better go to fit a turbo without priming it with fresh oil, before fitting, then just fire up the motor with it dry and rev it full bore!. Or standing there spinning it with there hands with no oil in before fitting!. They don't deal with that very well either in some cases. I figured I would just point out something relevant I had seen before. Because you never know with some of these problems that crop up on machines and the causes. A guy can very easily over look something important sometimes.
