They are just guessing. There really isn't much you can do to prevent it, maybe a Green Diesel Engineering tune to help prevent turbo boost spikes. Spikes are one of the main things that can damage a turbo, and overspeeding is one of the other biggies. This turbo is operated too close to its safety limits by the factory setup. The CRD should really have a larger turbo, but that would lead to turbo lag. It is all a balancing act.
