Abstract

A turbocharger (1) with variable turbine geometry (VTG), having a blade bearing ring (6), which has a multiplicity of guide blades (7), and which has a stop (25) at least for adjusting the minimum throughflow through the nozzle cross sections formed by the guide blades (7), wherein the stop (25) has a fixing peg (32) on which a deformable, arched adjusting section (26) is arranged. Since the stop is formed as a deformable component which can be fixed in the guide grate, it is possible after the assembly of the guide grate to rework said stop in a simple manner in order to precisely set the required stop position, since said stop is not integrally connected to the guide grate.
