PRECAUTIONS TO OBSERVE

les points suivants lors des travaux à effectuer sur le turbocompresseurStrictly observe the following points when working on the turbocharger:
  • Clean the fittings and the surrounding area before unscrewing the parts.
  • Place the removed parts on a clean surface and cover them (preferably with plastic sheet or paper; avoid lint-producing rags).
  • Only remove replacement parts from their packaging at the last moment.
  • Do not use parts that have been kept outside their original packaging.
  • Avoid using compressed air, which can carry dust that is harmful to the parts.

AIR-TO-AIR INTERCOOLER

REMOVAL AND REFITTING

  • Remove the front bumper.
  • Disconnect the hoses (1) from the air-to-air intercooler (2) (Fig.55).

  • Lower the clips (3).
  • Tilt the air-to-air intercooler (2) forward and lift it out of its mountings.

When refitting, observe the specified tightening torques.

TURBOCHARGER

REMOVAL

se dépose avec le collecteur d'admission ; ils seront désolidarisés l'unThe turbocharger is removed together with the intake manifold; they are separated from each other on the workbench.
  • Remove (Fig.56):
  • the air filter housing (1),
  • the electric cooling fan,
  • the pre-catalytic converter (2),
  • the air hose (3),
  • the air vacuum hose (4).
  • Remove (Fig.57):
  • the oil supply pipe (5),
  • the bracket (6),
  • the air hose on the silencer (7).
  • Under the vehicle, remove (Fig.58):
  • the heat shield (8),
  • the bolts (9),
  • the turbocharger (10).

INSTALLATION

Observe the following points:

  • only tighten the oil pipes once the turbocharger is tightened,
  • the specified tightening torques,
  • replace all seals,

  • check that there are no foreign objects in the intake duct and in the exhaust manifold,
  • make sure the oil fittings are clean,
  • make sure the turbocharger oil lines have no leaks and are not blocked; otherwise replace them,
  • check the engine oil level and correct it if necessary,
  • check for oil leaks.
