many engines work on different designs. since turbochargers are basically to improve the power output of the engine & do nothing else, i think it should not affect the normal functioning of the engine.
however, i would still advise you to change the turbo. i feel without the turbo, you car MAY not meet the pollution norms. also, the techincal guys at skoda know the best. do consult them on this issue too.
Turbocharged cars need Special Care.
The Engine SHOULD BE Run at Idle Rpm for 30 Seconds after Starting and Before Turning OFF the Engine.This Lubricates the Turbocharger thereby Increasing its Life.
Also DONT RACE THE ENGINE BEFORE TURNING OFF IT. Racing will damage the TC More.
I guess you have not followed this procedure.
BTW, how did you know that Turbocharger of your Octavia has Stopped working?I have Indigo LS which has covered 1,66,915kms. But still I don't face performance problems.
There are so many TC'd cars on roads.None of them have any such rules of running at ideal for 30 sec after starting & before turning off the engine,Not to race before turning off the engine,etc.
I mean i have never heard of something like this.Neither is it give in the Owners Manual of any Turbo cars/vehicles.
We can know the Failure of turbo when there is a sudden loss in cars performance & you no more hear the turbo whistle/growl.
i have a VERNA crdi and its given in my manual to idle the engine for atleast a minute before stopping it!!
Turbo Timing is not an oldies thing. Go to any GOOD tuner and ask him about turbo maintainence. the first thing he says is to let the turbo warm up and cool off before starting and shutting down.
Turbo temperatures go as high as 1500*c. If the engine is stopped suddenly, the oil flow to turbo stops, and it does not cool off. The bearing sleeves expand and contract heavily, due to the heat treatment, and their life is lowered significantly.
hey this is nice!! how much do these cost and how do they function??
A Turbo units turbine spins at a very high rpm (hundreds of thousands rpm), and a lot of turbos spin on lubricated bushes. Now if you start the engine and rev immediately, the turbo goes int its high speed spins, before the lubricating oil reaches the bushes, which could lead to premature failure of the turbo.
If you have stopped the car after a drive, the turbo could still be spinning at a very high rpm. Switching of your engine at this point would mean that the supply of oil to the turbo gets cut off, while the turbo is still spinning, which again, could lead to premature failure of the turbo unit.
This is the reason why one is advised to idle on starting and before switching off the engine.
Hey yes thanks for the advice CRDi!! Yeah this is what i do even though am in a hurry!! I don want to end up with a damaged turbo already!!
Racerdabba and crdi's points are exact. Its all about lubrication also the pressure build in. Lubrication is the important one here. Take a turbo fan and just blow gently , it will be rotating at 1500rpm. Then think about its funtion in its place.
I got my marina at 95000kms. I was worried if previous owner didnt follow the method. But as of now its working fine , If they have not followed properly , the life will come down.I am not sure in this point.
You people can even put a Turbo Timer to avoid sitting inside a car & idling the engine for 1 min.
P.S - Its already mentioned by racerdabba,dint read it.
Is it same for all turbochargers ? I mean a 1.2 l TC'd engine and a 1.8 l TC'd engine ?


Lives as lived and lives as written are never one and the same. To turn the first into the second one must introduce "fiction" into the "fact" of the actual existence; this is never more true than during the Renaissance, when multiformity was the rule. The Rhetorics of Life-Writing in Early Modern Europe explores the ways in which authors and their subjects constructed images for themselves, and some of the ways in which those images worked.
The volume is especially timely in light of the growing interest in "microhistory," and in the histories that are emerging from nonliterary documents. Chapters consider numerous genres, including hagiography, epistolary and verse biography, and less familiar forms such as parodic prosopography, life-writing in funeral sermons, and comic martyrology.
Contributors to the volume come from history, art history, and literature, and they include F.W. Conrad, Sheila ffolliott, Robert Kolb, James Mehl, Diana Robin, T.C. Price Zimmerman, and Elizabeth Goldsmith and Abby Zanger, among others.

LIGHT IN EVERY HOME. CLEAN ENERGY. FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT.
The ACOM solar light project has been introduced in 2010, the programme was funded by the AusAID innovation fund under the title 'Barefoot Power Entrepreneur Training Program' and implement through Anglican Oversea Aid (AOA) partnership with Anglican Church of Melanesia (ACOM). The church is advocator of solar renewable energy, which promoting climate friendly and climate change- adaptation technology solar power to communities in rural areas. Solar household desk lamps were distributed to remote communities in its Dioceses. It aimed is to Substitute Kerosene and replaced it with cheaper and environmentally sustainable solar LED lamps.
The Anglican Oversea Aid (AOA) in Solomon Island, the Anglican Church of Melanesia (ACOM) provide the in country network for the project implementation. Malaita province was recommended due to transport accessibility to Honiara during the pilot project period in 2010. In 2012 the project was then expand to four of its Dioceses, Hanuato'o, Ysabel, Central and Guadalcanal. The consultation success were made through Mothers union in those diocese where they manage the sales and maintain the supply chain to the very remote villages.
The primary aim for the project is to introduce the use of solar to the communities to replace kerosene lamp also to encourage gender inclusion in solar training and providing employment opportunities for youths and women.
Following the entrepreneurial training in 2010 for entrepreneurs at Malaita, which covers financial literacy, entrepreneurship and technical information, the project offered the following solar training to communities and solar technician base at rural areas.
systems. The ACOM believes that through empowerment in different field of skill then will help young youths to decide their future in regard to 'self-reliance' approach.
The significant step that highlights during solar training were the inclusion of women. Women are traditionally excluded in decision making in all forms particularly regard to energy sector. Culturally women are not influence or skilled to learn related field of training, however women are the primary users of solar energy related to house hold duties. We create flexible learning environment for women to participate and contribute during the training sessions, with this basics it create mutual understanding for both genders to learn and achieve equal knowledge to maintain and manage their own systems as well as empowered women to engage more in educational and income generating activities.
Expansions of the solar project to other four ACOM dioceses have been made possible through the hard work of Mothers union members throughout ACOM dioceses.


Good day, you awesome human.
A morning of special delights, where the world calls you and you rise to the joy of another day of life well lived. A holiday. A day of love and kindness. A day to remember that special someone who makes the world a wonderful place. A day set aside to remember the joy of sharing, the compassion of each day, the companionship and the affection. The security in a world where love resides.
Great human, all of life needs your love. All of life, needs your attention, your affection, your nurturing and your caring. All of life needs your awareness and kindness. All of life calls to you and all of life craves your support.
Brave human, tread so softly on the great planet. That tiny, wounded life calls to your heart and your mind. Save us, almighty human! Don't let us die!
The wondrous planet sends life to it's surface for us to explore, to enjoy. That beautiful great land, with so much abundance of life, of love, of giving and sharing. The world, so full of awe and wonder. The world so full of life and adventure. The world of the creation of the Earth. Of splendor and glory and magnificence.
Plunder not, oh great human. This glorious great Earth is a masterpiece of life and living. The joy of creating, the duty of care.

This page outlines the general use of the Trade Study tool.
What is a Trade Study?
A trade study is a method for making a complex decision between competing alternatives. Trade studies are most useful when there are many different criteria that need to be considered in the decision, each of which has a different importance. For example, when selecting a car you may care about safety, fuel economy, and cost, and each of those factors probably has a different level of importance.
More details on what a trade study is and the methods and calculations involved can be found here.
In the alternatives section you list the alternatives that you are deciding between. In the criteria section you list the criteria that are considered in making the decision. In the performance section you rate each alternative for how well it performs for each criteria.
The use of this trade study tool will be described through the completion of an example. In the example, Fred and Betty are deciding on a new car for their family. They are middle-age professionals with two children, Jimmy and Jill.
Fred has his eye on the Porche Boxter, but Betty is the voice of reason and insists that it isn't appropriate for the family. She will drive the point home with a well documented trade study.
The alternatives under consideration are entered into the Alternatives tab, as shown below. Each alternative is shown in the table. A new alternative can be added by clicking on the "new" row at the top of the table, entering the information for the alternative into the text fields below the table, and then clicking on the "Add Alternative" button. An alternative can be updated by selecting it in the table, updating the values in the fields below the table, and then clicking the "Update Alternative" button. An alternative can be deleted by selecting it in the table and clicking the "Delete Alternative" button.
The criteria that Fred and Betty are using to make their decision are shown below. Since they have two children, it is important that the car be safe and able to fit all four of them comfortably. Since Fred and Betty are busy all day either at work or chasing their two children around, they can't afford to spend much time wrangling with auto repairs, so the car must be reliable.
A new criteria can be added by clicking on the "new" row at the top of the table, entering the information for the criteria into the fields, and then clicking on the "Add Criteria" button. The importance of a criteria is rated on a scale of 1 to 9, with 1 being the lowest importance and 9 being the highest. This importance value will then be used to calculate a criteria weight. There are three weighting methods used: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), Pairwise, and Linear. These methods are described in detail in the reference section.
A criteria can be updated by selecting it in the table, updating the values in the fields below the table, and then clicking the "Update Criteria" button. A criteria can be deleted by selecting it in the table and clicking the "Delete Criteria" button.
A chart of the criteria weights is shown in this tab, as seen below. The weighting value of each criteria is shown for each of the three weighting methods.
The pairwise matrix that is used to calculate the AHP and Pairwise weighting factors can be seen by clicking on the "Show/Hide Pairwise Matrix" button. More details on the construction and use of this matrix are given in the reference section.
In this section, each of the alternatives are rated for how well they perform against each criteria. Complete this section by selecting each criteria in the table, and rating each of the alternatives for that criteria, and clicking "Update Performance" to save the ratings for the selected criteria.
• Qualitative: In this case numerical values for the performance are not known, and only a general subjective feel for how well each alternative performs is known. If this is selected, then each of the alternatives will be rated by selecting one of the following values from a drop-down: 1 - Very Poor, 2 - Poor, 3 - Fair, 4 - Good, 5 - Excellent.
• Quantitative - High Value Best: In this case numerical values are known for the performance, and a high value is best (i.e. for capacity, a higher value is best).
• Quantitative - Low Value Best: In this case numerical values are known for the performance, and a low value is best (i.e. for cost, a lower value is best).
Once the values for the alternatives are set for a specific criteria, those values are normalized so that they sum to 1. The normalized values are shown in the table and are used for calculating results.
Once the tabs for the alternatives, criteria, and performance are filled out, the results are shown in the Results tab. The results are summarized in the table and chart at the top of the tab, as shown below. The weighting method can be changed to see what effect the weighting method has on the final results.
Based on these results, the Ford Explorer and the Toyota Camry are both strong contenders, and the Porche Boxter is very clearly out of the race (sorry, Fred).
The calculations are shown in the table at the bottom of the tab. The calculations are performed by taking the performance of each alternative for each criteria and multiplying the performance value by the criteria weighting. The weighted scores are summed for each alternative and then scaled so the highest scoring alternative has a score of 100. The cells with bold green text indicate that the alternative received the highest weighted score for that criteria. Likewise, the cells with bold red text indicate that the alternative received the lowest weighted score for that criteria.
More details on calculating results are given in the reference section.
It should be noted that a trade study is only as objective as you make it. Any biases that you have when setting weightings for the criteria or when rating the performance of the alternatives will be reflected in the results, so the results of the trade study should not be taken as absolute. To minimize the risk of bias in the results, a sensitivity study should be conducted in which the criteria weightings and the performance values are modified to see how sensitive the results are to these factors.

1917 Is The Must-See Cinematic Experience Of...

A high-stakes tale that's beautiful, thrilling and unique

Summary 0.0 Avoid
While home setups are getting really good these days, there are some films that just absolutely shine on the big screen. 1917 is definitely one of those films. It was suggested that I watch it as big and loud as possible, and so IMAX was the order of the day (sadly, in South Africa the IMAX run is only a week long). In short, if you can see this in a cinema, I highly recommend you do.
1917 is a story about two young World War 1 soldiers tasked with delivering an incredibly important message that's going to save thousands of lives, but they need to do it on foot and before time runs out. The stakes are high and the clock gets ticking very quickly.
What instantly makes 1917 a unique war film is that the entire movie is filmed to make it seem like it's one very long take. More importantly, is because it looks like one take, you feel like you're along for the ride every step of the way.
This isn't just some gimmick though, in that it quickly and clearly becomes a core part of the films delivery of tension. As a matter of fact, the technical achievements of 1917 can't really be ignored. While you can spot the occasional moment where a dark area or tree was used to stitch two shots together, it's even more impressive to see the cameras moving in ways that just seem impossible.
The pacing of the film is astounding, as it effortlessly moves you through moments of calm, tension, rest and then more tension. One moment you are tense and the next you're taking a breather. Sometimes, just when you think it's time for the next breather, they catch you off guard.
A Dish Best Served Large
While 1917 relies on relatively unknown actors for its two leads, the film is sprinkled with surprise cameos by some of the UK's finest. The people behind the cameras though… phew, we're talking about some of the very best. Director and co-writer Sam Mendes (Skyfall, Spectre, Jarhead, American Beauty) has created something truly spectacular, and together with cinematographer Roger Deakins (Blade Runner 2049, The Big Lebowski, Skyfall, No Country for Old Men, Fargo) and composer Thomas Newman (American Beauty, Skyfall, The Help, Wall-E, The Green Mile) you have the recipe for a cinematic dish so delicious that you'll want to eat it all up, and then eat it all up again.
There is one particular scene in the film where the movie pauses for a moment, and lets the cinematography and music literally dance for the audience. It's a truly beautiful moment that feels like a little love letter to what cinema can be.
1917 is a high-stakes story, told in a very special way and presented with a blend of performance, visuals and soundtrack that sings the song of cinema. It's a small story, about a big task, told in a very epic and interesting way. You absolutely must not miss it 1917, and do it in the cinema if you can.

Even if you can't see him... you should totally see this film.
This genre-busting tales of segregation and the supernatural should not be missed.
Fantastic performances and a stale of vengeance is worth a watch
