Which consequence results when insufficient oil reaches a turbocharger?

💡 Explanation

Bearing failure and shaft seizure results from oil starvation because inadequate lubrication leads to increased friction and heat within the turbocharger's internals. Therefore, the turbocharger seizes rather than operating efficiently; insufficient oil doesn't directly cause compressor surge issues.
