20,000 Mile Turbo Blew Up

I have no info really, first time it blew to bits oil out the exhaust. This time the turbo is whining on idle and below 2500rpm then it clears. Bearing i would think, they replaced turbo the first time and put the old oil back in. I complained but they said this is normal if no contamination
The clearing of the ‘whining’ was probably the frequency increasing to being outside of the audible range as the rotor speed increased.
Putting the old oil back!!!!!! Oil screen takes out the lumps and the oil filter removes particles down to ? microns on a single pass before lubricating. No oil filter removes all contamination.
I suspect that both turbochargers failed for the same reason, that reason is unlikely to be the turbocharger.
Don’t go back to the same mechanic for the repair.
