How do I properly maintain the turbocharger of my Ford Kuga?

I just recently got a Ford Kuga and I want to make sure the turbocharger is well-maintained to avoid any potential issues. What steps should I take to properly maintain the turbocharger of my Ford Kuga?

As an experienced Ford technician, I highly recommend regular oil changes and using high-quality oil to keep the turbocharger running smoothly. Make sure to also check and replace the air filter when needed to prevent any debris from entering the turbocharger.

To ensure the longevity of your turbocharger, avoid harsh driving habits like sudden acceleration and turning off the engine immediately after driving. Allow the engine to idle for a few minutes before turning it off to let the turbocharger cool down.

One important aspect of maintaining your turbocharger is making sure the exhaust system is in good condition and there are no leaks. Any leaks in the exhaust can negatively affect the performance of the turbocharger.
