Product Details and Specifications
This remanufactured turbocharger features a journal bearing type, which supports smooth shaft rotation and durability under high-speed conditions. The unit is constructed from steel and aluminum components, balancing strength and weight. It is oil-cooled to maintain optimal operating temperatures and includes a wastegate actuator to regulate exhaust flow and boost pressure. The package contains the turbocharger itself, a gasket for proper sealing, a syringe for lubrication during installation, and an instruction sheet to guide the process. Note that mounting brackets and hardware are not included.
Common Applications and Issues Addressed
- Restores engine power loss caused by worn or failing turbochargers
- Replaces turbochargers damaged by foreign object ingestion
- Solves issues related to oil starvation and overheating
- Addresses boost pressure inconsistencies due to wastegate actuator failure
- Improves air and fuel delivery efficiency in Volkswagen Jetta models
Installation Notes and Maintenance Tips
Before installation, inspect the engine for any underlying causes of turbocharger failure such as excessive crankcase pressure or damaged air filters. It is recommended to replace the engine oil at regular intervals to prevent oil starvation, which is a common cause of turbocharger damage. Allow the engine to cool before shutting down to avoid cutting off oil supply to a hot turbocharger. Proper cleaning of the air and exhaust systems will also help extend the life of the turbocharger.

| Troubleshooting Tip | A decrease in engine power may be your first indication your turbocharger is damaged or has failed. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Any nicks, scratches, or chips on either wheel are evidence foreign object damage caused by contaminants entering the airflow to or from the engine. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Axial end play of the wheels and shaft in and out greater than the thickness of a sheet of paper indicates a worn thrust bearing due to excessive exhaust backpressure. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Before a failed turbocharger is replaced the original cause of failure must be diagnosed and corrected to protect the new installation. |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Common signs of wear indicating replacement may be required: |
| Troubleshooting Tip | Worn engines with excessive blow by will result in crankcase pressurization, leading to oil leaking from the turbochargers internal seals. This may result in oil deposits in the intake manifold or smoke in the exhaust. This is not necessarily a sign of a failed turbocharger, but rather a sign that the engine needs to be rebuilt or replaced. |
