Turbocharger Replacement

Caution: If a turbocharger has failed, clean any turbocharger debris or excessive oil from the charge air cooler system before installing the new turbocharger. Failure to clean debris from the charge air cooler system will cause severe turbocharger and engine damage upon startup. Failure to clean excessive oil from the charge air cooler system may cause an engine runaway condition on startup, resulting in severe engine damage.

2. Remove the engine sight shield. Refer to Engine Sight Shield Replacement .
3. Remove the diesel particulate filter/catalytic converter. Refer to Exhaust Particulate Filter Replacement : LNQ .
4. Remove the charge air inlet duct. Refer to Charge Air Cooler Inlet Duct Replacement .
5. Disconnect the turbocharger coolant return pipe at the turbo. Refer to Turbocharger Coolant Return Pipe Replacement : LNQ .
6. Disconnect the turbocharger coolant feed pipe at the turbo. Refer to Turbocharger Coolant Feed Pipe Replacement : LNQ .
