Remove the large rubber hose that comes from your air cleaner to your turbo and look into the turbo housing. You should see blades and a small nut in the center. Place a small socket wrench on the nut and see if it can be turn with a "little" force. Counter-clockwise. On all the car that I own with a turbo ,you need to always wait a few seconds and let the engine and turbo cool down before shutting it off. This helps the oil to "not" cook and coke-up on the spindle shaft of the turbo. This was a BIG problem on the early non-water-cooled models.
